Hadestown at Walter Kerr Theater

Hadestown

After a critically acclaimed Off-Broadway run at the New York Theater Workshop in the Summer of 2016, the extraordinary inventive folk opera Hadestown has now found a permanent home on the main stem. The brainchild of celebrated indie-folk singer-songwriter Anais Mitchell and Tony-nominated experimental theatre director Rachel Chavkin, who helmed smash-hit 'Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812', the musical fuses elements of Greek mythology with Mitchell's emotionally-charged concept album of the same name.
