Hadestown
Hadestown, the eight-time Tony-winning musical, plays Thursday, April 15, at 7 p.m. at Whiting Auditorium in Flint. Anaïs Mitchell's songs and Rachel Chavkin's staging take Orpheus down to the underworld; tickets start at $48.
Hadestown weaves together two myths: the love story of Orpheus and Eurydice, and the tale of King Hades and his wife Persephone. Mitchell's melodies pit industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. The show won the 2019 Tony for Best Musical, and its cast album took a Grammy in 2020.
