About Hadestown

See pop star Ani DiFranco in her Broadway debut! Come way down to Hadestown on Broadway and experience Anaïs Mitchell’s Tony Award-winning contemporary retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice’s tragic tale. Hell has never sounded so heavenly as at the Walter Kerr, the Hadestown theatre in NYC.

“Going to hell has never been as much fun,” New York Theatre Guide raves of the eight-time Tony Award-winning Best Musical. The New York Times calls Hadestown on Broadway “state-of-the-art Broadway entertainment.”

Greek mythology meets the Great Depression in the Hadestown musical, a folk opera set in a New Orleans-inspired dive. The musical presents a fresh take on a millennia-old tale: a musician Orpheus, talented enough to charm anyone with a song, takes a dangerous journey to hell to rescue his lover, Eurydice. Their story is interwoven with that of Hades and Persephone, whose hot-and-cold romance makes the seasons change. In Hadestown, hear these stories told with lively (and Grammy-winning) folk and jazz music unlike anything else on Broadway right now.

Feel the power of love and music at this soul-stirring Broadway hit — you'll never want to leave the underworld. Luckily, you don’t have to take as dangerous a journey as Orpheus - snag your seat now - SnagaSeat.
