Hadestown: Teen Edition comes to West Potomac HS!

The Tony Award winning best musical runs Oct. 30 - Nov. 8.

Beyond the Page Theatre Company at West Potomac High School is excited to announce our fall production of Anaïs Mitchell's Hadestown: Teen Edition, a haunting, jazz-inflected folk opera that follows Orpheus’ mythical quest to overcome Hades and regain the favor of his one true love, Eurydice.

This intriguing and beautiful folk opera delivers a deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience. Following two intertwining love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of immortal King Hades and lady Persephone – Hadestown invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love.
