I saw most of the original cast except with Jewelle as Persephone earlier this year and I was the most impressed with her! Her voice is huge! It just fills the theater and in every one of her spotlight numbers she puts on a show and keeps the audience into it
I saw the original broadway cast except Amber had left and so had Yvette, I had Lana Gordon as Persephone, and the first fate was Jessie Shelton who was in the off-broadway cast 😊 I loved Jewelle as the contralto fate though, she was absolutely perfect!
I won't lie. First clip of Persephone i wasn't impressed. Felt like maybe i was too attached to Amber's portrayal. Like maybe Jewelle was best as one of the fates with her amazing depth. But holy schmoly Way down Hadestown hit me like a Freight train. Good Gods that was amazing. So pure, so powerful and expressive. I wonder if they might consider doing another album with Jewelle and Lilias in these roles because this also feels like THE perfect Hermes. Literally everything I have been missing from Hermes since the original concept album is right here.
i flew from the UK to NYC with the main purpose of seeing Hadestown and this was the cast I saw. so incredibly grateful that it was - all the cast was amazing but my god lilias was so so perfect as hermes
I saw most of the OBC and also the touring cast and both times it was incredible! Each actor brought something so special to the role. And I really feel that this is a story you can enjoy again and again with new interpretations.
We saw this cast ( no Jewelle but the understudy was excellent) and were just blown away. We saw the tour last night and we loved it as well. It’s become one of our favorites.
I saw Jewelle, Eva and Reeve on Broadway and my god they were just BREATHTAKING performers! Eva’s voice made me feel like I was in another world and Jewelle had so much energy. Also Reeve really is just such a peak depiction of Orpheus it was all so excellent. I unfortunately missed Patrick because he was out for two week right when I was in NY :,(( but Tom made a powerful Hades as well, I just really wanted to hear Patrick’s amazing bass cause I’ve been a fan since I heard him in Hunchback
@@linkzelda8610 there was supposed to be a pro shot but they couldn't negotiate cast salaries so it never came to be. Word was some of the cast members wanted Hamilton pro shot level pay and the producers couldn't meet that
I imagine if there was a pro shoot it would be of the OBC, there are similarly professional filmed clips of them from earlier. This I imagine is just footage taken for promotional and archival purposes, which wouldn’t be legally allowed to be distributed in its entirety. Just like if a full professional shoot was taken of the show it wouldn’t be used for the same purposes as other footage, as it would have been filmed under different contractual obligations.
Reeve carney (Orpheus), Eva noblezada (eurydice), Patrick page (hades), Jewelle blackman (persephone), lillias white (hermes) there are more such as ensemble, swings,and fates listed on their website
I wish they'd get a deep voiced actor to play Hermes, because even now, the best rendition of Hermes I've heard was from the live recording, where he came off as playful, but the deep voice gave him a Godly sound. Not sure how I feel about this version of Persephone, and no one can top Patrick for Hades.
was NOT expecting there to be footage of road to hell reprise and it was like a smack to the face
I got full-body chills when I realized

same!
I saw her back in September and she was phenomenal.
She's such a great persephone
Ikr? She’s the one me and my friend saw.
Can we just talk about Persephone’s hair looking immaculate after shaking it around the way she does?
I love Jewelle Blackman's cute little tongue flick XD
I noticed that too! Just small little details like that I love😭

i was lucky enough to see the national tour, and it was my first time seeing a live musical, and there’s no words to describe it, it was amazing
I’m going to see it a few days, my excitement can’t even be described 😭😭
@@oopsididitagain2556 the Persephone on tour is so slay

JEWELLE BLACKMAN, I REPEAT, JEWELLE BLACKMAN
“We are the Muses.” From Hercules to Hadestown! Amazing!
i flew from the UK to NYC with the main purpose of seeing Hadestown and this was the cast I saw. so incredibly grateful that it was - all the cast was amazing but my god lilias was so so perfect as hermes
i love jewelle as persephone!! such a ranged voice and she uses it well!!
THAT NEW HERMES THOUGH! 😮😮😮❤❤❤
Interesting direction with Hermes. I kinda like it. :o
I love how it’s proshot clips and then just all of way down Hadestown

This is the cast I saw in October. I was so happy to see Patrick Page. They all rocked and the male dancers were fine!
Jewelle!!! My beloved!!!
they are so perfect . i need a proshot of them and i need it Now
Amazing acting, amazing voices
Ughhhh just wonderful
Ahhhhhh! I love all the new cast members! I couldn't stop smiling the while way through.
We saw this cast ( no Jewelle but the understudy was excellent) and were just blown away. We saw the tour last night and we loved it as well. It’s become one of our favorites.
Oh do you remember which understudy?? I'm assuming either Shea Renne or Brit West
i was so lucky to see this cast on broadway last month and they are SO fantastic!!!
Reeves little jump
She’s damn fine and talented 🥰🥰

Still really wish I could see this, the OBC was in the town I live in for a while but I didn't have the money on hand. Hadestown looks so fun.
whoever casts this show is not from this earth. no misses with broadway hadestown ♥
I got to see them live! It was amazing!
I just saw this in person like two weeks ago and I cried omg
I. Love. This. Show. So. Much !!!!!!!
Im sorry theres a proshot of hadestown??? 🤯
Not confirmed but they are posting a lot of professional videos
@@Hermes.whistle im really hoping for this to be signs of a proshot to come. These look far too professional to just be advertising b-roll
@@linkzelda8610 there was supposed to be a pro shot but they couldn't negotiate cast salaries so it never came to be. Word was some of the cast members wanted Hamilton pro shot level pay and the producers couldn't meet that
that's actually so sad
LILIAS WHITE
Is this just a one time thing or are they going on tour again with a new cast?
A different cast is currently doing a tour! There's the broadway production (one in this video) and then the national tour cast
Hades has ofc
Is there a proshot? Please gods, letvit be.
It isn't confirmed unfortunately, but with the clips they have been posting on their Instagram it seems like they are holding onto one
I imagine if there was a pro shoot it would be of the OBC, there are similarly professional filmed clips of them from earlier. This I imagine is just footage taken for promotional and archival purposes, which wouldn’t be legally allowed to be distributed in its entirety. Just like if a full professional shoot was taken of the show it wouldn’t be used for the same purposes as other footage, as it would have been filmed under different contractual obligations.
@@TheTradge proshots are not always OBC. I have seen pro video of obc, but this looks way more extensive than just promotional material.
So there is a proshot film but it is unaccesible? :c
It appears that way unfortunately, they probably won't release the full thing though ://
Probably not, they usually only film little parts for promo, making a full proshot is really expensive
@@ryanfaure3120 that's sad, but a proshot would generate so much revenue anyway I don't think the cost matters
i had no idea there was a pro shot!
There isnt, or at least a full thing these are the only things Released
Is this going to be release in full somewhere?
Probably not
where did you get this from?
The Official account on insta
What do you mean it's not pronounced purse-a-phone??!!!
PffT 💀 yeah it's pronounced purr-seph-phony
@@Hermes.whistle 🤣😭 never would have gotten that on my own lol
I hear ya. I also used to say Your-ee-dice.
Where do we find this pro shot?
@@roseannabludd4435 not publicly released👍
@Hermes.whistle dang! Is it on a specific streaming site?
@roseannabludd4435 no it's not available to anyone, it's only for archival reasons for the show
does anyone have the names of these cast members?

I get that but I feel like the lighter voice gives Hermes a warmth while also being a contrast to Hades’s deep base
