Hadestown

In Hadestown, Anaïs Mitchell’s folk- and jazz-inflected musical intertwines two ancient Greek love stories: the young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice journey to the underworld, while King Hades and Persephone reckon with their own relationship. Created by Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin, this touring production brings a haunting, hopeful take on myth, love, trust and imagining a better world to Merrill Auditorium.
