Hadestown

Welcome to Hadestown, where a song can change your fate. Winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the 2020 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Theatre Album, this acclaimed new show from celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and innovative director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812) 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. Performed by a vibrant ensemble of actors, dancers and singers, Hadestown is a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.

CBC Q with Tom Power - Anaïs Mitchell on Hadestown

Anaïs Mitchell is the first woman in years to have sole credit on a Broadway show and over the course of a decade, her musical has morphed into a Tony-winning sensation. As the show tours Canada, Anaïs tells Tom what it’s like to spend a third of your life working on a passion project, where she drew her inspiration from, and why her confidence in creating the musical never wavered.
