Angelica HaleGUEST
Yes.
Angelica HaleGUEST
Or Eurydice from Hadestown.
Angelica HaleGUEST
Hadestown is my favorite.
Angelica HaleGUEST
Oh, my God.
Angelica HaleGUEST
I could totally see both.
Angelica HaleGUEST
I saw it after the run of Boop because I couldn't see any shows while I was doing the schedule.
Angelica HaleGUEST
So I was like, I'm immediately going to go see shows.
Angelica HaleGUEST
And I saw Hadestown.
JessicaHOST
Mm-hmm.
KaseyHOST
What's that? In Hadestown, Orpheus and Eurydice, because the whole...
KaseyHOST
You're going to get Hadestown lore.
KaseyHOST
In Hadestown, Orpheus and Eurydice were leaving hell...
KaseyHOST
Per Hades, but he couldn't turn around to look at her, otherwise she would go back to hell.
KaseyHOST
So, spoiler alert, the end, he turns around and looks at her because he loves her and he just wants to make sure she's okay.
GavinHOST
stopped, then it can get released and start licensed for the youth.
GavinHOST
But I think it's really great that like this and Hadestown specifically have been really good about getting them out early so that kids can do them because that's really, really good for their show and their brand.
LiamHOST
I think it also makes them a lot more money, too.
LiamHOST
They can license it way easier.

GavinHOST
More to come with that, I'm sure.
LiamHOST
Oh, man.
GavinHOST
I think the Genie in Aladdin is like Hermes in Hadestown.
LiamHOST
I think they just added two years to their run with making recasting easier.
ShoshanaHOST
i love them but we're gonna just continue this intro as we kind of walk to our spot on the carpet uh rachel zegler right here and then before uh rachel brosnahan was in superman she was a theater person and we love to see it so new york theater workshop always has the pulse on the people coleman domingo being honored tonight we're gonna try to chat with him but i know he is a busy person.
ShoshanaHOST
We are also chatting with the Hadestown crew, which started off Broadway at New York Theatre Workshop and now is one of my favorite musicals.
ShoshanaHOST
Let's wrap it up and chat with all those special guests.
ShoshanaHOST
See you at the show.
ShoshanaHOST
It's New York Theatre Workshop's gala.
ShoshanaHOST
We see a new Hadestown cast member coming up.
ShoshanaHOST
Hadestown always has the best casting, best production from New York Theatre Workshop to Broadway, which I think is really awesome.
ShoshanaHOST
What do you want to say to the fans at home about just how
David ChaddertonHOST
Right.
David ChaddertonHOST
In the press release, your credits include Guys and Dolls, Nicely Nicely, of course, of the National Theatre, Hadestown.
David ChaddertonHOST
But it doesn't mention the show that I still talk of as being the best musical theatre production I've ever seen, which was Company at the Donmar in 1996.
David ChaddertonHOST
Company.
Clive RoweGUEST
I loved doing that, even though it was a takeover.
Clive RoweGUEST
I'd have to go to Carousel.
Clive RoweGUEST
I think Hadestown is an incredible, incredible show.
Clive RoweGUEST
Again, it's takeover rather than creating.
Andrew GilmoreHOST
But what else is happening with your retirement time?
Kathy O'ConnellGUEST
Well, and what else is happening? Hadestown came out and the pro shot, the Broadway pro shots that I guess started with Hamilton and come from a way of filming a Broadway show.
Kathy O'ConnellGUEST
I can I can sit here and watch a Broadway show without leaving my couch.
Kathy O'ConnellGUEST
And and this is a wonderful invention as far as I'm concerned.
CoreyHOST
What I've noticed is the ones that call my attention most are the ones with a heavy societal impact, right? A, a look at the way so- society functions, at the way politics function.
CoreyHOST
And for that reason, Les Mis, Hamilton, Hadestown have all been very high impact, you could say obsessions of mine.
CoreyHOST
Each one of those explores ways that people deal with oppressive systems, highly complex negative situations, right, similar to or akin to collapse.
CoreyHOST
In Les Mis, we get a man who suffers the oppression of a system that is overly aggressive in his punishment through his discovery of his place in society, of the changes that he can make, of fulfillment in his own life, and of overall a people who are fighting to free themselves from an oppressive government.
CoreyHOST
In Hamilton, we've got a people who are fighting, again, an oppressive government, overtaxing them of draconian laws and of fighting for a better future.
CoreyHOST
And with Hadestown, which by the way, I feel like Hadestown is one that is maybe lesser known.
CoreyHOST
It hasn't been as big in the spotlight maybe until recently.
CoreyHOST
They did come out with the, the pro shot where you can actually now watch it on Apple or other streaming services, so I highly recommend you do that if you haven't seen it.
Martha BeckHOST
And we are doing something kind of interesting today.
Martha BeckHOST
We're using a brilliant Broadway musical, Hadestown, by Anais Mitchell, to explore how we feel about...
Martha BeckHOST
Be some of our favorite topics.
Rowan ManganHOST
Work.
24 MINS LATER
Rowan ManganHOST
So as we've been talking about this, I keep going to this song.
Rowan ManganHOST
Remember when we went to see...
Rowan ManganHOST
Hadestown? Hadestown.
Rowan ManganHOST
Okay.
Elizabeth RedwineGUEST
Mm.
Andrew RimbyHOST
Well, I was gonna say Hadestown has-
Elizabeth RedwineGUEST
I stumped-
Andrew RimbyHOST
... really done well as a musical.
Andrew RimbyHOST
But, um-
Angela WeislGUEST
Mm-hmm
Andrew RimbyHOST
... uh, wait, Liz- Elizabeth, why did you really like Hadestown? I have to ask the counter.
Elizabeth RedwineGUEST
I, you know what? I, I think I saw it, like, right after the pandemic, if I'm counting right, and I hadn't been to the theater in a long time.
Amy SpeaceGUEST
A- and that's the, that's the craft of the artwork.
Amy SpeaceGUEST
I mean, I'm a friend, my friend is, uh, from the folk world is Anaïs Mitchell, who created Hadestown.
Amy SpeaceGUEST
Well, there you go.
Amy SpeaceGUEST
You know, she wrote it, I remember when she was working on it, it was just a piece of, like, 1930s propaganda.
