This Weekend: Hadestown
Welcome to Hadestown, where a song can change your fate. Winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards and the 2020 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, this acclaimed new show from celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and original director Rachel Chavkin is a love story for today… and always. Hadestown intertwines two mythic tales — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — as it invites you on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Mitchell’s beguiling melodies and Chavkin’s poetic imagination pit industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love in a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.
Hadestown will be at TPAC’s Jackson Hall March 7-9. For tickets, see Hadestown | Tennessee Performing Arts Center, and for more information about the tour, see HADESTOWN.
