    Fun fact! Lillias White also voiced the center/main muse in Disney's Hercules. Who is credited as being Calliope. AKA the mother of Orpheus. So with Hermes being Orpheus's parental figure in Hadestown, I found this to be a cool coincidence.

    Okay, but the staging of Orpheus is hilarious when Hades comes into the picture, he does a little gazelle leap to get in front of his wife, then he literally has to put his hand in front of her to stop her from jumping in. Poor dude.

      super late to this but when i first saw this a year ago what i couldn't stop thinking about is just how vastly matured that one gesture was. as reeve carney grows into the role so does orpheus and in that second of him looking at hades' arrival (in turn, persephone's departure). other performances simply have orpheus moving to eurydice's side to shield her, and this gesture is only orpheus' own first taste of suspicion, wariness, doubt. but when he JUMPS? the mere action is a desperate attempt to hide away eurydice from hades' view. like he understands just what kind of _something_ is going to happen next. the quick block and the small shake of the head as eurydice aims for a peek of the underworld, a plea. i can't put my finger on it but there's something so aware about the way this specific orpheus percieves the world around him, and something so nostalgic about the way he reacts.

    Was able to see Lillias perform on Christmas Eve. She fubbed the alright part and said "I'm sorry I'm out of it today. Merry Christmas." I don't know why but that little mistake is what sold me on her. I feel like the roles of Hermes in particular really lends itself to being personalized by the actor. She really made it her own and I absolutely loved it. I think I'll always prefer André but I love seeing what other people do with this role.

      The fact that the singer on the OG concept album, Chris Sullivan, Andre and Lillias' Hermes-es are all incredibly distinct from each other and yet all work within the context of the story basically confirms that sentiment

      @@merivial8661 That's only because Beanie Feldstein left before they did the cast recording, they didn't re-record anything, the original just left really early because of backlash. I've never heard of two different broadway casts for the same show being recorded except for revivals of shows.

    My friend the late Dan Eriksen committed suicide a few years ago and I got to see the song run through of this before it ever got close to coming to the stage - it was in its very early stages of planning Dan was a Lighting and Sound guy by profession - the name of his business was On location Productions - the funny thing is they told me Leonard Nimoy was sitting behind me at the run through and I didn't even realize it and never even saw him at all but I remember saying to myself at the performance I don't even like musicals or plays and all these songs are great and sure enough it's enjoying great success - if anybody was at that dry run through performance leave me a message or if you knew Dan Eriksen

    한국도 박준면씨가 헤르메스 하시면 잘하실거같다 박준면씨의 노래스타일이랑 헤르메스 넘버들이랑 정말잘어울리고 특유의 중저음의부드러운거칠면서 부드러운목소리여서 역할표현에도 정말 잘어울릴거같은데.. 박준면씨가 뮤지컬에서 코믹한역할로 많이나오시지만 그건 연기를 잘하신단 뜻이니 분명 헤르메스도 잘하실거다 박준면씨같은 배우가 진짜 보석같은 한국에 몇없는 소중한배우인데..뮤지컬많이해주세요 다양한역할로요

    Does anyone know what the dance Persephone does with her head hanging down is called? I've seen other actors do the same dance at that part, but I don't know what it is!

    • @Hermes.whistle
      @Hermes.whistle Год назад +4

      It's always been apart of show at least since 2016, the dance from what one actress said, almost like death and possession, this whole song is meant to represent a funeral! (hence Hermes black umbrella)

      Go watch some videos of people dancing like the “flappers” in the 20s, definitely inspired by that.
