Dreamcasting Anais Mitchell's Hadestown

http://www.hadestown.com




I'm still awaiting more news on when we'll see a full stage production of Anais Mitchell's brilliant Hadestown, a depression-era folk-opera retelling of the story of Euridice and Orpheus. In the meantime, I can't help but do a bit of dreamcasting.

Listen to the show recorded live at Club Passim (legally) then tell me your dream cast!

Eurydice: ROSE HEMINGWAY
u/s Elizabeth Davis, Arielle Jacobs [NOT Laura Osnes!]

Orpheus: COLIN DONNELL
u/s Stark Sands, Bobby Steggert

Hades, king of the underworld: TOM WOPAT
Persephone, who runs a speakeasy: SARA RAMIREZ
The Three Fates: HEATHER ROBB (of The Spring Standards), ASPEN VINCENT, and HOLLY BROOK (of Duncan Sheik's Whisper House)
u/s Alysha Umphress, Rebecca Naomi Jones, Lauren Pritchard

Hermes the storyteller (a hobo): RAUL ESPARZA

Director: John Tiffany

Choreographer: Steven Hoggett
