Check Out the Playbill Cover for 5th Anniversary of Broadway's Hadestown

The Tony-winning Broadway musical Hadestown, which began previews March 22, 2019, is about to mark another milestone.

The hit musical will turn five April 17 at the Walter Kerr Theatre. To celebrate the occasion, audiences at the Walter Kerr will receive a special Playbill throughout the month of April. Check out the cover for the fifth anniversary Hadestown Playbill below. Purchase your own copy of the special Playbill by clicking here.

Hadestown currently stars Grammy winner Ani DiFranco as Persephone, Jon Jon Briones as Hermes, Phillip Boykin as Hades, and Isa Briones as Eurydice. Jordan Fisher, usually starring as Orpheus, is currently taking a leave of absence from the hit musical through April 24.

They are joined by Belén Moyano, Kay Trinidad, and Brit West as the Fates. The chorus of Workers is played by Emily Afton, Malcolm Armwood, Chibueze Ihumoa, Alex Puette, and Grace Yoo. The cast also includes swings Sojourner Brown, Brandon Cameron, Tara Jackson, Max Kumangai, Alex Lugo, and Tanner Ray Wilson.

Singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell’s folk- and jazz-infused musical layers the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice with that of Hades and Persephone, intertwining the actions—and consequences—of gods and mortals. Hadestown originally began as a theatrical concert performed by Mitchell.
