HADESTOWN: TEEN EDITION Announced as Extracurricular Theater Production

December 9, 2024

The Arts department is excited to announce HADESTOWN: TEEN EDITION by Anaïs Mitchell as this year’s extracurricular theater production. Only available for school and youth groups with performers 19 years old and younger, this full-length adaptation of Anaïs Mitchell’s HADESTOWN has been modified for performance by teen actors for family audiences. 

An intriguing and beautiful folk opera, HADESTOWN delivers a deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience. Following two intertwining love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of immortal King Hades and lady Persephone – HADESTOWN invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love.

Friday, February 14 at 7 pm
