The Tony and Grammy Award-winning Broadway musical Hadestown is making its West End debut at the Lyric Theatre.

The love story of Orpheus and Eurydice
 |
   |
Set in a post-apocalyptic world, it follows the love affair of talented musician Orpheus and Eurydice, who are busy making plans to leave their bleak homeworld for a better life above-ground. But then the ruler of Hadestown tempts Eurydice with a job offer.
When Eurydice abandons their dreams and accepts the offer Orpheus is devastated, and heads off to rescue her - jeopardising his plans to escape Hadestown.

It also earned itself an ACCA Award, four Drama Desk Awards, and six Outer Critics Awards.
