\u201cHadestown,\u201d the winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards, including Best New Musical and the 2020 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, is returning to Pittsburgh for the first time in four years starting next Tuesday.<\/p>\n
The show opened at the Walter Kerr Theatre on Broadway in April 2019, where it played sold-out houses nightly before performances were suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. \u201cHadestown\u201d resumed performances in September 2021, as one of the first musicals to reopen on Broadway where it continues to play today.<\/p>\n
\u201cHadestown\u201d blends modern American folk music with New Orleans-inspired jazz to reimagine a sweeping ancient tale. Following two intertwining love stories \u2014 that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone \u2014 \u201cHadestown\u201d invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. <\/p>\n
It will be at the Benedum Center through Nov. 1.
