HADESTOWN: TEEN EDITION
Experience the haunting, jazz-infused folk opera that took Broadway by storm in this specially adapted production featuring an incredible cast of young talent. Join Orpheus on a mythical quest to the underworld to rescue his true love, Eurydice, in a world where industry battles nature and hope fights against fear. With its Tony Award-winning score and a defiantly hopeful message, this is a “hell-raising” journey you won’t want to miss.

Book, Music & Lyrics by Anaïs Mitchell
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 invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love.

After its origins as a DIY community theatre project in 2006 and a studio album in 2010, Hadestown electrified audiences with its 2016 world premiere at New York Theatre Workshop, becoming the longest-running show in that celebrated theatre’s 40-year history. The production then received its Canadian premiere at Edmonton’s Citadel Theatre in 2017 and then a 2018 sold-out engagement at London’s National Theatre. Hadestown opened on Broadway at the Walter Kerr Theatre on April 17, 2019, developed with and directed by Rachel Chavkin, starring Reeve Carney, André De Shields, Amber Gray, Eva Noblezada and Patrick Page. Hadestown made its West End debut in February 2024 at the Lyric Theatre, London. Directed by Chavkin, the production featured Dónal Finn, Grace Hodgett Young, Zachary James, Melanie La Barrie and Gloria Onitiri.

HADESTOWN: TEEN EDITION is a modified version of Anaïs Mitchell’s Tony-winning musical, adapted for teen performers (19 and younger) and family audiences by adjusting language, removing mature content, and altering vocal arrangements to better suit younger voices.
