Hadestown
The smash-hit Broadway and West End musical sensation by singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin is heading out on its first ever UK and Ireland Tour.
‘Big, beautiful and emotionally blasting’ (The Guardian), HADESTOWN is the winner of 8 Tony Awards including Best Musical and the Grammy Award® for Best Musical Theatre Album. Seen by over six million, streamed by nearly a billion and adored by fans around the world, this record-breaking musical is ‘the most exhilarating ride’ (WhatsOnStage).
HADESTOWN takes you on an unforgettable journey to the underworld and back, intertwining two ancient Greek mythic love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone.
A deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience, HADESTOWN invites you to imagine how the world could be. Get your HADESTOWN tickets now and experience the musical phenomenon that’s taken the world by storm.
