Recently released for schools to perform, the Tony-winning hit show by Anais Mitchell Hadestown: Teen Edition will play at the Huss auditorium this weekend, May 16-18.
The folk opera reimagines the two intertwining Greek myths of Orpheus and Eurydice, two newly-in-love dreamers, and Hades and Persephone, a pair of gods whose passion has frozen over, sending the world into a post-apocalyptic disaster. Eurydice, struggling to choose between her heart and her head, is lured into Hadestown by Hades with a promise of stability and comfort. Orpheus, determined to save her, journeys to the underworld and makes a deal to bring her back, but it comes with a dangerous condition and a cost.
