Hadestown (film)

Hadestown is a 20XX American musical drama film based on the 2006 stage musical of the same name by Anaïs Mitchell. Like the musical, the film retells the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, utilizing an early 20th-century setting. Eurydice, a hungry young girl, goes to work in Hadestown, an industrialized version of the Greek underworld. Orpheus, her lover and a poor songwriter, ventures into Hadestown to rescue her.
Hadestown was released worldwide by Universal Pictures on December 4, 20XX.

The original version of Hadestown premiered in Barre, Vermont in 2006. This was followed by a performance in Vergennes, Vermont, and a tour in Vermont and Massachusetts which ran in 2007. Mitchell, unsure about the future of the musical, released a concept album in 2010. In 2012, Mitchell met director Rachel Chavkin, who both reworked the stage production with additional songs and dialogue, which then premiered off-Broadway in 2016. After productions taking place in Edmonton and London, the show officially premiered on Broadway in 2019, and was met with critical acclaim.
