The musical Hadestown is no outlier when it comes to the heartrending conclusions that mark a lot of musicals. The initial song emphatically declares it to be a "sad song" and a "sad tale." In spite of its sorrowful finale, "Hadestown" draws interest due to its outstanding ensemble and well-crafted storyline imbued with a compelling message. The narrative retells the myth of Orpheus from Greek mythology. The core focus revolves around the journey of Orpheus and Eurydice to Hadestown, the realm ruled by Hades, where their intense love story unfolds.

Anaïs Mitchell, the creative force behind this astonishing production, is the mind behind its music, lyrics, and book. Her exceptional talents come to the forefront in her other well-known projects like Young Man in America and Child Ballads. In collaboration with director Rachel Chavkin, Mitchell embarked on a journey to create a new iteration of the theatrical piece in 2012. This updated rendition included added musical pieces and dialogues. The remodeled theatrical adaptation of the musical, formed under Chavkin's guidance, premiered Off-Broadway at New York Theatre Workshop on May 6 and ran until July 31. The production later toured Edmonton and London before making its grand entry on Broadway in March 2019.

The New York Daily News had a wonderful time attending the Broadway presentation and expressed, “America's journey to the underworld is a road best avoided – better to step off it, dear ones. Don't peer backward – it's way too dangerous. Instead, seek for the fissures in that famous wall we're erecting. That's the essence of "Hadestown," the exciting new Broadway show with a score that resonates from the very depths of the American core. Combining elements of steampunk, "Westworld," and Bourbon Street chaos, this dark tuner was conceived as a concept album in 2010 – a kind of folk opera – created by the incredible singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell.”
