Saw #HadesTown live on Tuesday just gone, at the Lyric Theatre in London.
My teenage daughter told me about it and showed me a few videos and I was like, yeah that looks interesting let's go see it.
It was phenomenal. All I knew before hand was that it was a jazzy steampunky version of the greek tragedy involving Orpheus and Eurydice, with Hades and Persephone. I had no idea it would be so relevant to current affairs.
The music and acting was amazing. The stage setting and lighting was also amazing. Every step, every turn, every facial expression was delivered with such passion and precision.
I've taken a few days to process but this was without a doubt my favourite part. This is not from the date we were there but it is the same cast and stage. The message is so strong!
The filmed Broadway version is coming to cinema apparently in October, so I highly recommend it 🤗

Voor wie #Hadestown niet kent, dit schreef Hein Jansen vorig jaar in de Volkskrant:
IJzingwekkende prestatie
Gospel, blues, spirituals, jazz en folk, worksongs – het zit er allemaal in, swingend, maar ook weemoedig en smartelijk soms, met fraaie solo’s en duetten, en opzwepende groepsnummers. De grote kracht van deze productie is de hechte samenwerking tussen de solisten, het ensemble en de muzikanten. Een draaischijf waarin de personages naar de onderwereld kunnen afdalen en een bonte verzameling cafémeubels, meer is er niet nodig om van Hadestown een indrukwekkende musical te maken. -
"Er zijn momenteel 1.300 wachtenden voor je." Wow. #Hadestown

or possibly:
the nature of patriarchy is men promoting men into leadership positions which they know they will fail in and assign all the consequences of failure to the women assigned to follow them, over and over again, despite the fact that everyone involved knows that this is why the world is broken

I realize Musical Theater majors typically have dance class at least once a day, and this type of effective self-awareness and instrumentality of the body is sort of table stakes for Broadway performers nowadays, but seriously to see it at the level attained in that show, by an entire cast at once, while at same time all the music and the story are devastating and beautiful, is a rare gift in the world. #Hadestown

one of the things I liked best about seeing #Hadestown even on film is just the thing of watching a stage full of people who are clearly trained to be aware of their bodies and use them well, and everyone in the whole ensemble is excellent at it. Before you even get into the choreography and dancing, just the way everyone carries themselves is beautiful and fully alive at all times, and they also all seem aware of and in tune with each other in a special way. It was subtle and it's hard to explain how I could even tell, but at the same time it was vivid and like palpable and undeniable

wow saw the #Hadestown movie with my wife and daughter tonight and my gods what a gorgeous and life-affirming thing. And I feel more blessed than ever knowing my kids got to go see that on Broadway once! Just an amazing and beautiful show
