About This Production
This intriguing and beautiful folk opera delivers a deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience. Following two intertwining love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice and that of immortal King Hades and Lady Persephone – Hadestown Teen Edition invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by classic American folk music traditions and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love.
