The musical Hadestown is no exclusion when it comes to the heartrending conclusions that characterize a lot of musicals. The initial song emphatically declares it to be a "sad song" and a "sad tale." Even with its sorrowful finale, "Hadestown" compels attention owing to its outstanding ensemble and well-defined storyline imbued with a potent meaning. The narrative retells the myth of Orpheus from Greek mythology. The core plot revolves around the odyssey of Orpheus and Eurydice to Hadestown, the realm ruled by Hades, where their deeply intertwined love story unfolds.

Anaïs Mitchell, the mastermind behind Hadestown, is responsible for its music, lyrics, and book. Her exceptional talents are evident in her other prominent creations like Young Man in America and Child Ballads. In collaboration with director Rachel Chavkin, Mitchell embarked on a journey to create a fresh version of the stage production in 2012. This revised rendition included additional songs and dialogue. The altered theatrical adaptation of the musical, crafted under Chavkin's direction, premiered Off-Broadway at New York Theatre Workshop on May 6 and ran until July 31. The production subsequently traveled to Edmonton and London before making its grand entry on Broadway in March 2019.

The New York Daily News had a fantastic time witnessing the Broadway performance and commented, “America's journey to the underworld is a route best avoided – better to get off it, my children. Don't peer backward – it's way too dangerous. Instead, search for the cracks in that iconic partition we're constructing. That's the core of "Hadestown," the thrilling new Broadway production with a score that emanates from the very depths of the American spirit. Combining elements of steampunk, "Westworld," and Bourbon Street disarray, this grim tuner originated as a concept album in 2010 – a kind of folk opera – created by the astounding singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell.”
