4Hadestown at the Lyric Theatre isn’t just a musical—it’s a spellbinding odyssey that blurs the line between ancient myth and modern reality. With its unique blend of New Orleans jazz, Depression-era aesthetics, and steampunk sensibilities, this Tony-winning production offers a hauntingly beautiful take on the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. It’s a bold, innovative masterpiece that demands your attention and rewards it tenfold.
"The underworld has never sounded so funky. At a time when jukebox musicals seem to be everywhere, singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell’s captivating folk opera, inspired by the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, is a reminder of what musical theatre can achieve when it sets its sights beyond the lowest common denominator."
"The packed crowd exuberantly cheered as each character came on, and their delirious delight sustained through to the thunderous curtain call. At first, I didn't quite get it, and then somewhere along the way I was drawn in, initially intrigued, gradually bewitched and then profoundly moved."
