Smash-hit musical Hadestown has extended its booking period at the Lyric Theatre in London’s West End, now running until 27 September 2026.
Winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Hadestown is the acclaimed production by celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and Tony Award-winning director Rachel Chavkin. Blending modern American folk with vintage New Orleans jazz, the show reimagines the ancient Greek myths of Orpheus and Eurydice and Hades and Persephone as a haunting, contemporary musical journey through the underworld.
Following its record-breaking Broadway run and a much-praised staging at London’s National Theatre, the production continues to thrive in the West End, where it has played to sold-out audiences and critical acclaim since opening at the Lyric Theatre in February 2023.
The current London company features:
- Nicola Roberts (Girls Aloud, City of Angels) as Persephone (from 16 September 2025 – 18 January 2026)
- Desmonda Cathabel (Disney’s Aladdin, Mamma Mia! I Have a Dream) as Eurydice
- Dylan Wood (No Love Songs) as Orpheus
- Chris Jarman (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child) as Hades
- Cedric Neal (Guys & Dolls, Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812) as Hermes
They are joined by Melanie Bright, Allie Daniel and Lauran Rae as the Fates, with an ensemble including Femi Akinfolarin, Michelle Andrews, Ollie Bingham, Laura Delany, Sebastian Lim-Seet, Lucinda Buckley, Juan Jackson, Oisín Nolan-Power, Lindo Shinda and Jasmine Triadi.
