Hadestown: The Musical – Watch the trailer for the new film of the original Broadway show

The live theater capture from the West End production of the hit musical Hadestown, which won eight Tony Awards in 2019 including Best Musical and the 2020 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, featuring the five original principals of the Broadway company.

The genre-defying musical blends modern American folk music with New Orleans-inspired jazz to reimagine a sweeping ancient tale. Following two intertwining love stories — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — Hadestown: The Musical  invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back.

Directed by Brett Sullivan, Hadestown: The Musical brings together the five original Broadway principals, Reeve Carney, André De Shields, Amber Gray, Eva Noblezada, and Patrick Page, reprising the roles that helped make the production a defining cultural phenomenon.

In US cinemas Five Nights Only Starting July 24.
