Hadestown, the smash-hit Broadway and West End musical by singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin has announced its first UK tour.
Hadestown takes audiences on an unforgettable journey to the underworld and back, intertwining two ancient Greek mythic love stories – that of young lovers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone.
The musical is the winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album. The musical has been seen by more than six million people and streamed by nearly a billion listeners.
The deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience invites audiences to imagine how the world could be.
