  • The Live Cast Recording of Hadestown is available now everywhere music is sold. Get it here: w.lnk.to/hades...
    Producers Mara Isaacs and Dale Franzen, and Warner Classics, in collaboration with Ghostlight Records, have released a new recording of the acclaimed Off-Broadway musical Hadestown, recorded live during the original run of the show at New York Theatre Workshop. This new musical written by celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and developed with and directed by the three-time OBIE Award-winning director Rachel Chavkin, follows Orpheus' mythical quest to overcome Hades and regain the favor of his one true love, Eurydice. Together we travel from wide open plains where love and music are not enough nourishment to survive the winter, down to Hadestown, an industrialized world of mindless labor. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell's beguiling melodies and poetic imagination pit nature against industry, faith against doubt, and love against death.

    I've been such a big fan of Amber Gray since Great Comet and idek why but the fact that her signature color in this show is still green makes me really happy.

      Probably it's to represent the arrival of spring when she annually leaves the Underworld to be with her mother, Demeter, The Goddess of Grain and Earth Fertility.

    The fact that there was a concern about keeping this moment alive, and that the words "official bootleg" were used make me fall in love all the more. Having this type of recording done officially, with good quality and live is everything we're always asking for and defending. This album is beautiful and brilliant. I hope the Broadway recording follows the same pathetic, and maybe opens the way for official and accessible video recording - though that sounds more like a dream by now who knows? A story for everyone who tries, right? So, let us do so.

    Here after they announced the Broadway run. I can't wait, but I also miss the original cast, especially Damon Daunno. I just want him back as Orpheus :(
    I'm not hating on the new cast, though! I know they'll do great. But I also know that this cast will always be my favorite.

    God I need to listen to this again lol. My amateur troupe is doing a medley and none of them have listened to this version, only the Broadway... I, personally, prefer Damon Daunno and Nabiyah Be to Reeve Carney and Eva Noblezada, but that isn't why I prefer this version; I prefer this version because you can feel their passion and their presence onstage and, while the studio recording may be cleaner, that's the problem. Hadestown and Greek myth in general is messy and emotional and passionate, not clean and perfect.

    Saw the last night in London.. mostly ruined by an unnecessarily emotive screaming and whooping audience.. It seemed musically very repetitive.. and the biggest joke was that the guy playing Orpheus (ex Spiderman) had a really irritating voice.. which is rather ironic.. given that the mythical character supposedly had a voice that would charm the Gods... Not So !! at least the guy featured here seems to have a pleasant voice.
