As Hadestown's national tour arrives at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles for a run continuing through May 29, cast members stopped by The Late Late Show With James Corden to perform "Way Down Hadestown." Watch the full performance above.
The national tour kicked off at Greenville, South Carolina’s Peace Center October 5 with an official opening engagement October 13 at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.
Nicholas Barasch (She Loves Me) and Morgan Siobhan Green (Be More Chill) star as Orpheus and Eurydice, respectively. They’re joined by Tony winner Levi Kreis (Million Dollar Quartet) as Hermes, Kimberly Marable (Broadway’s Hadestown) as Persephone, and Olivier nominee Kevyn Morrow (Moulin Rouge!) as Hades.
Rounding out the traveling company are Belén Moyano, Bex Odorisio, and Shea Renne as the Fates, plus Lindsey Hailes, Chibueze Ihuoma, and Sydney Parra as the workers, and Jamari Johnson Williams, Tyla Collier, Eddie Noel Rodríguez, Ian Coulter-Buford, Alex Lugo, and J. Antonio Rodriguez.
Anaïs Mitchell’s folk and jazz-infused musical, inspired by two intertwining myths of gods and mortals, began as a theatrical concert performed by Mitchell. The show debuted at New York Theatre Workshop in 2016 before playing Canada, London, and, in spring 2019, Broadway. The Broadway bow resumed performances September 2 at the Walter Kerr Theatre.
The production also features choreography by David Neumann, orchestrations by Michael Chorney and Todd Sickafoose, set design by Rachel Hauck, costumes by Michael Krass, lighting by Bradley King, and sound design by Jessica Paz. Casting is by Stewart/Whitley.
