Watching this live almost felt like an out of body experience. After it finished it took me at least 20 minutes to connect with my senses, i couldn't even feel the cold outside. It wasn't simply watching the story but living it with them. Dylan Wood's performance is something everyone needs to see live. Truly I cannot describe how honoured I feel that I got to experience this.

This was my wife and I's last night in London. This was also our first show in London. It was beyond extraordinary. This Hadestown cast was top notch and we thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. The Lyric is gorgeous and contains so much character. As this was our 4th visit to London, a trip to see a show will forever be included in our itinerary.

This was my first musical ever and I have to say this was better than what I could have ever dreamed of. The staff is very helpful and friendly when arriving which creates a warm atmosphere! But then the whole cast of singers and the crew creates such a magical moment! The emotions are very well transmitted and everyone can enjoy the music!

The rollercoaster Underworld saga, set in the world of Greek mythology, is returning to London after it first played at the National Theatre in 2018. After opening to rave reviews and critical acclaim, Anaïs Mitchell and Rachel Chavkin’s Hadestown was nominated for 14 Tony Awards in 2019, a record-breaking number, and won 8 of them. It also holds a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album. So, there is no doubt that Hadestown in London is going to be a phenomenal experience. Get your tickets for Hadestown before they run out. The Underworld has never looked better.

The story

A story about the trials and tribulations of love, Hadestown focuses on two couples — the poverty-ridden Orpheus and Eurydice and the King of the Underworld, Hades and his wife, Persephone. When Persephone is miserable about returning to the Underworld after she visits the world above, Hades heads out to search for someone who will appreciate the offerings of his home. He finds Eurydice and convinces her to move to the Underworld in exchange for food and protection. Eurydice agrees and becomes a worker at Hadestown, the dark underground factory of Hades. When Orpheus finds out, he vows to save Eurydice. What follows is a heartbreaking tale of sacrifice, triumph and the mysterious machinations of fate.

The show was phenomenal. I did not know much about Hadestown going in, but I was far from dissatisfied or disappointed. It was clear the actors were having fun during the performance, which- in my opinion- exemplified the atmosphere of the show. More importantly, I think what really made the performance was the music; I did not know or expect there to be live music but the Jazzy, New Orleans genre style of rhythm brought the whole show to life. It was hard to tear your attention away from the stage as every little moment added to the story. Before I even knew it the show was over and ever since that night, I have been consistently recalling moments from the stage and marvelling over just how good it was- and that I actually got to see it in person. I 100% recommend going to see this, and, given the chance, I would jump at the opportunity to see it again.

the show was phenomenal. The actors and actresses left such a great impression on me that I miss hearing their voices on the official soundtrack. Even from the furthest row in the theater I was able to feel the experience as if I was right on stage with them.
