"Wait for Me" - Hadestown the Musical ANIMATIC
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 янв 2018
- Time to jumpstart the Hadestown fandom please.
Even if you haven't seen the musical and have no idea what's happening, hope you enjoy. We can all laugh at Orpheus losing his sanity and my total disregard for continuity. :')
*EDIT*
It has come to my attention that many people are confused as to this is about. Let me just clear things up a wee bit.
The guy at the beginning with the hair curl is Orpheus.
The man with the hat is Hermes.
The girl in the ending is Eurydice.
This musical is based off the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, and this song is Hermes telling Orpheus how he can get into Hadestown (a.k.a. the underworld) to retrieve his wife (Eurydice) from there. I don't want to give too much away, so there's the bare bones of what you need to know.

This is absolutely gorgeous work. Thank you for this. I have always thought this music could be expressed visually in this way. Please do more. Patrick Page (Hades)
Hello Mr. Page! I'm so stunned and thrilled you happened to find my video-- thank you so much for your encouragement! You are phenomenal as Hades; the power and emotion you emulate through the songs is a huge element of what makes the show incredible. I hope to get to see it in person one day. I wish the best of luck to you and Hadestown! :)
(Whoa.)
Holy Hades! IT'S HADES!
AaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAa
*screams in real life*
He’s right, you know!!! Do more!!!!!
Hermes: Ya gotta go undercover.
Orpheus: ok mate, **just puts on casual clothes and a bandana** yup that’s good.
Poofsheen 10/10 disguise
Best disguise ever
"no one will recognize me, the famous musician, if i wear a goddamn bandana"
SNEAK 100
It is a mix between Orpheus just being a fool... and that Fire Emblem disguise meme.
hermes: you have to go on this super secret and sensitive mission involving breaking into caves, climbing over walls, and disappearing in crowds
orpheus: What A Great Place To Bring My Guitar
the best part is that it was the right decision
yes, because orpheus can't live without his goddam guitar
He can make rocks weep with his damn guitar, give him some respect.
I want to like this comment, but it's at 100 exactly and my conscience won't let me ruin that
your conscience: *i dont feel so good*
When he sings "wait for me" I get chills eVeRyTiMe
Especially with the screenshots of Eurydice and their love. It's so haunting

The second “where is she?” hits me so hard I don’t know why but his naive voice with a little of suspicion and nervousness but he’s still happy ugggg it’s beautiful

*Burr violently inhales in the background*
WAIT FOR IT
😂😂😂😂😂😂
XD
Lmao that’s what I was thinking
Both amazing musicals
Burr: Waaaaaaaait for me, I'm comi-
Jefferson: **closes door**
“Course, there is another way but, I ain’t supposed to say.”
“Another way?”
“YeAh, aRoUnD tHe BaCk-“
That cracked me up XD
Hermes isn't the best keeping secrets
i cracked up every time i think about this, not even 3 seconds after he said he's not gonna say it then he when on saying it
The "I ain't supposed to say" always read to me as him playing coy--he kind of _wants_ to tell Orpheus, but he's making Orpheus work for it.
also I'm nitpicking but "around the back" reads to me like a euphemism, not literal. orpheus doesn't actually go around the back
“You keep on walking and don’t look back”
Too soon?
And I oop-
OOF
Wow
Is this a jojo reference
Oh god no foreshadowing for later in the musical NO
Does anyone else get the whole "Wait for me" bit stuck in their head? Like, it's so good!
Blossom 101 In all honesty Yes
It's so mezmorizing
Live Louder well if I'm right this is Orpheus he had the most powerful voice in Greek mythology
GIVING ME GOOSEBUMPS EVERYTIME ITS JUST TOO BEAUTIFUL AND POWERFUL
Blossom 101 me it’s amazing
The way he sings, “Wait for me” has me weak in the knees. I don’t know what style of music that is, how it’s so beautiful, but it elates and fills me with incomparable joy whenever I hear it. His voice is a drug to my ears.
It’s blues I think
E CG nah blues are the same lyrics over and over professing a problem, not blues
That is what this is
It's a musical
Musicals are a medium, not a genre
I just love how Miranda's animatics was basically the gateway to the Hadestown fandom
can confirm this is the first hadestown content i’ve ever seen and it got me into the fandom and made me listen to the musical
And now she opened the gateway to the mad ones fandom
this is literally the first hadestown animatic I’ve watched, I’ll update you later if I somehow manage to get involved into this
edit: i mean, sorta did
Cna confirm
1:04 I love how he checks his pocket for a ticket to Hadestown. Like ORPHEUS COME ON YOU'RE SMARTER THAN THAT BUDDY
Nyah lmao we have the same name
Lmao, nah. Orpheus has serious himbo energy.
Is he tho?
😂 oh my gosh YES!!
is he tho?
"Time to jumpstart the Hadestown fandom please." YES. PLEASE.
Erin Kahn I’m so excited because I’ve been in this fandom since the original album came out
that will never happen we are all down below waiting
I just found out about it
and I’m living for it
Hadestown wasn't even needed when every iteration of Hades has created a fandom for the god himself
@@Mulcam29 I was watching a video about Hades when this popped up
A musical based off of Greek mythology? Um, yEs PlEaSe!!!
Melissa Kaleka If you want more musicals based on Greek mythology I highly recommend The Lightning Thief musical it's based on the Percy Jackson book series which happens to be about Greek mythology in the modern world 👍
JustAnotherMedium v1 I’d recommend Jasper in Deadland. It’s based off the the same myth.
@@justanothermediumv1798
TLT wasn't really that accurate in greek mythology tbh
lol ikr
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICES IT :'D THANK YOU!!!
I just realized this, but.
"They'll suck your brain, they'll suck your breath/
Pluck the heart right out your chest/
Truss you up in your Sunday best/
And stuff your mouth with cotton"
That's how corpses are prepared for burial. Remove all the organs, dressed up nice, and stuffed back up so they look right.
THAT’S SO SMART I WOULD’VE NEVER NOTICED
You're a genius
"ah... with all your heart..." gets me every damn time
I read this just as that happened

“Under cover of night, laying low-“
“WAAAAITTT FOOR MEEE!!!”
Orpheus really doesn’t understand what “undercover” means

“It’s a trial”/“No, it’s a test”

Oh shit I'm not ready for this-
Oh frick no pl ez
@@ruzspruce9984 wait what’s the original I’m new here
@@rando_girl_2430 okay, the original myth is that Eurydice dies on the day they get married, Orpheus goes to the underworld to find her, so Hades gives him a chance to have her back. In one condition, as Orpheus climbs up the underworld back to the mortal world, he is not allowed to look back for Eurydice, and trust that she followed.
But because he loved Eurydice more than anything, he looked back.
Eurydice was gone forever, and all Orpheus had to do now was wait until he entered the underworld too.
but the musical ends differently, so it's sort of okay now.
i love how instead of bones and bread to bribe the dogs, its money. just a cool detail about how money is valued over people's lives.
It's also a reference to Charon, the boatsman of the River Styx, requiring payment of a golden obol! It's a really cool metaphor, turning him into a literally gatekeeper and toll collector!
Eurydice: “O-Orpheus? I-I don’t feel so good...” 4:05
Natalie Calt Orpheus is an Avenger confirmed
*W H E E Z E*
That’s what I think at the end of Doubt Comes In
I see the the memes forming
STOP IT MY HEARTTTTTT
"Euhhh with all your heart." Hes mocking him omg
Lol I know that it's 6 months later but I don't think so 😂 The way he says it sounds more like pity. Like Hermes doesn't want him to go but at the with all my heart he realizes that he can't stop him.
HipposAreDeadly maybe it’s because he’s heard it a thousand times from all the lovers separated by hadestown and so many people claiming they loved them with all their hearts, leading Hermes to think “pfft heard it a thousand times”
@@papillons3989 I think that he's heard it a thousand times but just in the same stories. Hadestown is based off of mythology which is retold over and over again. At the end Hermes says that they'll tell the story again. He's told this same story so many times and it always ends in tragedy.
Not mocking , but at once wistfully & cynically remembering what it’s like to be so open hearted. A distant memory now . Just my take on it.
I think it’s like they say, it’s an old song but they keep singing it again. He’s heard it so many, and knows what happens, but still has hope when he gives him the way into Hadestown because maybe this time it’ll be different.
Me at the beginning: Wow Orpheus is really cute
Me halfway: WoW Eurydice is really cute
Ariel Robinson the bi struggle is as real as trying to choose between Zendaya and Tom
Eurydice is very beautiful

Ariel Robinson the bisexual agenda
AND ANDREY ISN'T HERE ahaha thank you but now i’m bi and can’t choose AAAAA
”It ain’t for the most sensitive of souls so... Do YOU really wanna go?”
“With all my heart.”
“With all your heart...? Did you NOT JUST HEAR ME YOU SENSITIVE LITTL-
It wasn't a question, he was just restating it
Aha😂😂😂😂🤦♀️
I'm pretty sure he said "so so" as in someone without strong desire.
DID I STUTTER?!
Waiiiit cuse this is Book of Life
I love when Orpheus is looking at the flowers with a small smile saying he'd go "to the end if time" to find Eurydice. And then he drops the flowers like he's lost everything saying "to the ends of the earth." I absolutely adore this ❤❤
that's my favorite part, too
Okay but can we just appreciate how orpheus’s verse isn’t something like like “come back.” It’s “wait for me”. He wants to support Eurydice the same way she supported him. He just wants to be with her.
Orpheus's smile when he first asks "where is she?" is so cute and innocent and makes me want to cry 😭😭😭
this makes me cry every time man. Orpheus already has such an emotional voice and then you went ahead and animated it dang perfectly and oh man oh boy did it fuck me up.
The "where is she?" and his "wait" bits at the end. holy hell.
The most beautiful animatic i've ever seen.
yep!!!!!!!!!
If Riverdale does this I'm actually going to sue them

Figgy and BooBoo No! Don’t let them ruin another musical!! 😂
Riverdale has lost their musical privileges
@@shylahjones950 i mean they did heathers which is definately not clean so maybe they won't (i think i'm in denial)
Depressed Salad lol they don’t do clean musicals. They take musicals with curse words and sex jokes and butcher the lyrics to make a kidz bop version
I AM RED
Hermes:I'm not supposed to tell you how to get to hadestown *Tells Orpheus how to get to hadestown anyway*
That's it,that's basically Hermes in Mythology. He'll be like I'm not supposed to do the thing but guess what I'm doing it anyway!
i mean the first thing Hermes did was steal his stepbrothers cows and eat them, so he never really followed rules
Orpheus: Waaaait~
Burr: *FOR IT*

Hi Zik
Love your Hamilton
Ziksua you know about many great artists
The first “wait for me! I’m coming to you” hit my heart
Same. 😭
Not in line I’m really late but same 😭
When he said “with all my heart” I teared up a lil
I think if Hadestown should be a movie musical, it should be made into a 2D animation, like one of the classic disney movies.
I totally Agree! This is the kind of stuff that would be Iconic in a classic Hand drawn film. Something like what we see with this animatic. It's 2 much of a master piece to need cgi or live action. This would truly fit best with that Hand Drawn organic feel. This musical already feels nostalgic with it's music and story telling style. So Hand drawn to look like it feels like it could be long to the Golden age would hit home. I don't want Disney involved though. I think Disney back then could do better than to say but I feel this needs a non Disney asthetic. Like it looking as good as if it was Disney but by some one else instead. Besides Disney might try to insert another Hades into this and I feel those 2 Should remain separate. They are both really good interation of Hades in general but we don't need two inerationa of Disney Hades. Descendants already did that. Disney gave us 3 different Mallefecents by now too. Time for Someone else to shine.
I'd love to see hadestown in princess frog style
The way you drew Eurydice made me think of Esmerelda from Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Whe Orpheus says “with all my heart” idk why but it wakes me want to cry. Like, that little voice crack is so, just, huvdjnfyj. It shows how much he loves her and would literally *go to hell for her.*
i’ve never heard this version and when he burst into that first wait for me i actually stopped breathing and teared up. he has a beautiful voice
samee girl
I love how Hermes is just plain disappointed. "Orpheus, you're a FAILURE, and NO ticket. I raised you better."
For those who are just hearing of hadestown: make sure to listen to the concept album too! It came before it was turned into a musical and has some songs not on the cast album but still in the show. Also! "Anyway the Wind blows" was a song off one of anaïs Mitchell's (the composer) solo albums and was turned into the intro to the show. Hope everyone enjoys hadestown it's an awesome show!
PLEASE I NEED MORE FOR THE HADESTOWN FANDOM

Damon Duanno absolutely nails the balance between sorrow and resolve in this. It’s a shame the broadway bridge isn’t in this. His Orpheus is my favorite still.
I can't when he starts to have flash backs of her it hurts my heart

Hello everyone!! I just wanted to say a quick thanks for the incredible support you all have given to this video, to me, and to Hadestown! It's really a joy to read through these comments every day and see all the folks introduced to this amazing musical. I have plans to make another Hadestown animatic over the summer, so expect that comin' at ya very soon! :D Thank you all again and see you later
LOVE your work here Miranda. You really are an asset to Hadestown. Kind of a freelance advertisement for the play. Your animatic is artistic genius (and I don't use that world lightly.) You are a very impressive young lady.
*pterodactyl fangirl screech*
This got me into Hadestown and it is such a great musical
Hey! I've announced the animatic I'm doing next over on my tumblr. But, since this is such a random request, I really want to do it. So here! I'm going to give you a haiku, then I guess you can go check if you are right. :')
An early call home.
Exposition and dance breaks.
Goodbye to the spring.
Miranda Pla of
Dont get me wrong, I love the Broadway cast, Reeve Carney does amazing as Orpheus, but something about this version is just so much more impactful for me
Damon Daunno hits different
I think it's because Hermes voice just has that impact, the deep sorrowful tone that really suits this better.
tell me bout it brother.
feel lot more nostalgic this way.
jfc... that first "wait for me" nails me straight in the feels every time. Every. Single. Time
My friend found this on accident, and we’re both obsessed with so many musicals, and she texted me saying “OH NO. ANOTHER MUSICAL” and then she sent me this link. I’ve honestly never heard any of these songs, but I’m obsessed with this one. Whenever I can I will try and listen to this whole soundtrack, but I just wanted to say this: You are such an amazing artist and this is such an amazing animatic.
Jesibug * is it scary that my friend texted me the exact same thing?
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
Eurydice?
[HERMES, spoken]
Hey, the big artiste!
Ain't you working on your masterpiece?
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
Where is she?
[HERMES, spoken]
Brother, what do you care?
You'll find another muse somewhere
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
Where is she?
[HERMES, spoken]
Why do you wanna know?
[ORPHEUS]
Wherever she is, is where I'll go
[HERMES, spoken]
What if I said she's down below?
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
Down below?
[HERMES, spoken]
Down below
Six-feet-under-the-ground below
She called your name before she went
But I guess you weren't listening
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
No...
[HEREMES, spoken]
So...
Just how far would you go for her?
[ORPHEUS]
To the end of time
To the end of the earth
[HERMES, spoken]
You got a ticket?
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
No...?
[HERMES, spoken]
Yeah, I didn't think so
'Course, there is another way, but
I ain't supposed to say it
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
Another way?
[HERMES, spoken]
Yeah, around the back
But that ain't easy walkin', Jack
It ain't for the sensitive of soul, so...
You really wanna go?
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
With all my heart.
[HERMES, spoken]
Huh, with all your heart...
Well, that's a start.
[HERMES, muffled]
How to get to Hadestown:
You’ll have to take the long way down
Through the underground, under cover of night
Laying low, staying out of sight
There ain’t no compass, brother, ain’t no map
Just a telephone wire and the railroad track
You keep on walking and you don’t look back
’Til you get to the bottomland
[ORPHEUS]
Wait for me, I’m coming
Wait, I’m coming with you
Wait for me, I’m coming too
I’m coming too
[HERMES, muffled]
The River Styx is high and wide
Cinder bricks and razor wire
Walls of iron and concrete
Hound dogs howling 'round the gate
Them dogs’ll lay down and play dead
If you got the bones, if you got the bread
But if all you got is your own two legs
You best be glad you got ’em
[ORPHEUS and FATES]
Wait for me, I’m coming
Wait, I’m coming with you
Wait for me, I’m coming too
I’m coming too
[HERMES]
You’re on the lam, you’re on the run
Don’t give your name, you don’t have one
And don’t look no one in the eye
This town will try to suck you dry
They’ll suck your brain, they’ll suck your breath
They’ll pluck the heart right out your chest
They’ll truss you up in your Sunday best
And stuff your mouth with cotton
[ORPHEUS and COMPANY]
Wait for me, I’m coming
Wait, I’m coming with you
Wait for me, I’m coming too
I’m coming!
Wait,
Wait,
Wait,
Wait...
I love it when people type down the lyrics, awesome work man ^^
I love reeve’s Orpheus but DAMN Damon’s emotion and his voices sweetness just are so endearing and beautiful.
Orpheus: *-Waait for m--*
*Burr in the background* : *_WAIT FOR IT!!_*
WAIT WHAT?? IS THIS BASED OFF THE MYTH? duuuude that’s my second favorite myth after cupid and psyche 😭
Rockinashy It is!😄 I was introduced to the musical by this animation and loved the song so much that I looked up the plot and everything so I could know what was going on. Apparently it’s a Depression Era version of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, and Hades is the owner of a huge underground mine+factory+city, also known as Hadestown (I’m not quite sure about the factory part but they was what I gathered based off the lyrics in other songs).
Ohhhh. If you like Orpheus I suggest, if you havent, listen to a song called "Beat of Her Heart" by Gungor, its also about Orpheus
S A M E
me too! I like the myths of Cupid and Psyche, Orpheus and Eurydice, and Icarus
Meghan Broking I think in Roman methology it's Cupid.
I have never listened to this musical and haven't even heard of it (I figured from the description that it's something about Orpheus and Eurydice?) but freaking hell, the facial expressions and the voice of Orpheus are literally breaking my heart and he is so well drawn (like EVERYTHING in this) and the man with hat (Hermes? From what I figured from the comments) is just SO AWESOME with his all-raspy voice and accent and this laid-backness, I don't know the character but judging from the voice I think you captured all his traits perfectly. He reminds me of Sans from game Undertale. And that expression of him when he says "but I guess you weren't listenin'", like some kind of a ironic but somewhat sad and symphatizing smile and how HEARTBROKEN and weak Orpheus sounds when he says "with all my heart" and how desperate he looks and how everything is dark and eerie when he sneaks into the Hadestown, it's such a scary and haunting mood in that scene and how beautiful Orpheus sing this "waaaait for me", I just can't put this into words, it's perfect and his voice is so mesmerizing and everything!! And I LOVE how the man with hat later appears in front of Orpheus, warning him with that stern and ominous look on his face and the scenes with Orpheus' memories with him and Eurydice and how he's losing his mind are plainly heartbreaking, thank you so much for sharing this, you're awesome and I'll go listen to the rest of soundtrack now.
Yes this is exactly how I feel too, you put it so perfectly into words.
I love the way Hermes looks when he says "With all your heart." He KNOWS how this is going to go. He knows it won't end welll. But, he still wants to let Orpheus try and change the ending.
3:29 Orpheus, I don't feel so good.
Peculiar Connor ARE YOU KIDDING
I LOVE THE HADESTOWN SOUNDTRACK!!! I GOTTA SEE THIS SHOW!!
RosedCat I truly recommend it, it is spectacular
I saw it with Reeve Carney as Orpheus. It was fantastic!
Sadly, I don't believe its playing anywhere near the west coast T^T Missed opportunities =w=
It was in Edmonton at the Citadel but sadly I never got to see t 😭😭
so does he find her?
I've never even heard of this musical before, but just this chorus is so stirring, and your artwork makes it that much cooler. Awesome.
I legitimately think you are a big reason why a lot of people found this show before the Broadway release… I remember telling all my friends about this little Indie show called Hadestown after I learned about it from this video, and watching the show explode in popularity was amazing. I was finally able to see it in person with the touring company last week - and hearing Wait For Me live brought me back to this video… the one that brought this incredible show to my ears those few years ago. Thank you so much for this!
Me watching this for the first time:
*OK BUT HIS VOCALS*
an actual real life hadestown animatic!? i’m in love (especially with how good it is?! so much shading and detail :,)))
Holy sht I'm now in love with this musical. Thanks for introducing me to this masterpiece. Hope you make more stuff like this, love your work!
Perontivine did you watch it live? 😄I don’t live anywhere it showcased so I’m trying to look for it online but I can’t find anything 😰
Popco Panda I didn't, but I found the whole soundtrack in YT. I think it's a different cast though. ^^
I wanna like this so bad but... Hadestown... 666... it's perfect
One ticket to the HadesTown fandom... Wait... I'm already in so many... Maybe I shouldn't... **gets dragged into it** WAIT NO! I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR A FEELS TRIP

This is the video that got me in to Hadestown. A year and a half later and I can't believe how much the show has grown. I remember searching high and low for any footage of the show, then I got to see it in London at Christmas, now it's just swept at the Tony's. I'm so proud ❤
THAT FACIAL DROP AT 0:03 WAS BEEAUTIFUL
Simply amazing. The hell scenes are so visceral and effective.
Thanks
Honestly, I love this version more than the official cast release (I'm sure the art has a lot to do with it!)
I remember when this was one of the only Hadestown animatics out there. I loved it then and I still think it’s the best representation of the emotional journey. I play this in my head every time I hear this song. Great video ❤️
This is wonderful! Your Hermes and your Orpheus are perfect and the way you illustrate the journey with a mix of the modern and the mythical - the cameras, the coin! And the fact that Orpheus was bringing Eurydice flowers -- that's lovely and so appropriate considering her later song.
How have I not heard of this musical before? Much love.
YES IT TOOK ME TWO YEARS TO REALIZE SHE TURNED AROUND AT THE END ADFGHJK
THE DESPERATION IN HIS VOICE KILLS ME EVERY TIME!!!!
WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY L I F E
Where has your profile pic been all my life! It's perfect!!
i am now listening to hadestown :0 what an amazing musical! the music is eery and yet oh so gorgeous? anyways!! i love this!!!!!
The pages flipping is haunting
3:45 the pure sadness in this mans eyes
This was one if my favorite myths.
Eurydice died in her sleep while Orpheus was out.and when Orpheus came back her body was gone so he went to tell the townspeople what happended,and since he was famous for his amazing fiddle play in skills,an old lady told him that the only way to see his dear eurydice was to go down into the golden gates.so the old lady led him to the grave yard.he listened to her and eventually he was brought down to the gates.once he was there an angel asked him his purpose and he told her about his dear love.when she refused he bribed her with his fiddle skills.when he played it she cried so she let him see his beautiful eurydice.
But the only rule was that he couldn't look at her on his way back or eurydice couldn't go back to the surface with him.he did as he was told,until they were at the entrance.eight before they could exit Orpheus couldn't take it anymore and he turned around and looked at her.she wasn't behind him,because he didn't do as he was told.the entrance sealed and he was stuck,6 feet under.so,now Orpheus walked along the tunnel for the rest of his life until he was a ghost and played his sorrow fiddle.on some nights,on eurydice death day,you can hear his soft fiddle.
Not to be rude, but this sounds like a Christianized version of the actual myth...
Curry the one I just did was one where it was acceptable to be in a children's book>and it was kinda
Who in their right mind would rewrite a weird christianized version of this story lol
Timothy christians
what do ya mean " where it was acceptable to be in a children's book" ya can just revise the actual story not fucking make it all christian and shit
This is so phenomenally beautiful. The visuals are absolutely stunning, and the detail knocked the breath right out of my lungs. I adore your art style and how you visualized each scene; the entire animatic is rich with life and effort, and there's not a second where I felt disinterested or had to wait for the visuals to grab my attention. This is so well-done and I really hope you're proud of it, because it's made my day and, as it seems, a lot of other people's too. The work you put into this is outstanding!
7catsinatrenchcoat oh hi cee! big agree
I love how fire has color and nothing else does
This sounds cheesy but I actually got goosebumps. Beautiful art wonderful music!
AHHHHHHHH I HAVE THE MOST TALENTED SISTER ON THE PLANET WHAT HECKKK #MIRANDAFORCEOOFMARVEL
AHHHHHHH SO DO I?!?!? ISN'T THIS PARADOXICAL?!?!?!!?
If only this was how me and my brother treated each other. He said to listen to my “stupid musicals” ffs I have no brother
i haven't even heard of this musical before but this really makes me wanna check it out!
I was scrolling through the comments and I saw yoongi and I just want to say I love you
I love the portray of Hermes in this. He's got this old school con-artist vibe to him. He comes off like he's working some kind of an angle, and yet the whole way he's helping Orpheus along, keeping the kid on his toes. Also, the portrayal of Asphodel as this endless field of souls wandering to and from the mines of Hades is just...absolutely horrifying. Bravo.
omg i just realized ive heard this on tiktok without knowing it was hadestown and now im obsessed with it
i heard it on tik tok before i like musicals as much as i do now, and look what happened to me
Welp i guess ive found another musical to get absorbed into, honestly though this is great!
HOLY HELL THIS IS A MASTERPIECE
Haha. Hell. Underworld. Get it? You get it. x)
rowan ain’t you working on your masterpiece
the “where is she?” at 0:28 hits so hard and i don’t know why
Me coming back after 2 years
*THIS WHOLE THING GIVES ME CHILLS OH MAN*
This is so well drawn and those angles? Magnificent god damn
0:51
I'm sorry but, I just cannot take that, "No" seriously still
Ok but why is this version better than the Broadway cast recording
sqiii I think it’s the performance of Hermes. The baritone voice fits the era and sounds richer than the new Hermes
Some random person I believe it’s Kingsley Leggs
Some random person he does have such a smooth jazzy voice
@@johnmartin4119 its Chris Sullivan actually!
Damon Daunno was literally made for this role
Oh, holy shit???? Whaaaaa, how have I NOT heard of this musical before? The song and voices are gorgeous and so is your drawing style!! Like, I fell so hard for this fandom, like thank you? Thank you so much for introducing us!
oh BOY this is good. i love hadestown and you really went above and beyond with this song. i love all the little details too-- like the added blinks during the scenes with orpheus and hermes. it really gives that lifelike-animated touch! and the scene with orpheus walking down the train tracks with nothing but a bucket of paint, a coin, and his guitar getting ready to tear down the boards of the blocked entrance was really something. please keep up the storyboarding!!
This literally makes me cry 😭 especially when he finally sees her and she turns her back on him💔
This video was the first to get me into Hadestown. And I would like to say thank you
