New casting has been revealed for the West End production of Hadestown.
The Tony Award-winning musical, which follows two interwoven tales of fraught love in a re-imagined Greek world, is penned by Anaïs Mitchell and directed by Rachel Chavkin. It continues its run at the Lyric Theatre – where it opened in February and was hailed as “terrific” and “sensational” by WhatsOnStage’s Sarah Crompton – five years on from its sold-out engagement at the National Theatre in 2018.
The London cast is currently led by Dylan Wood (Orphans, No Love Songs), making his West End debut as Orpheus, with Madeline Charlemagne, previously playing one of the Fates, now in the role of Eurydice. Melanie La Barrie stars as Hermes, while the three Fates are presently portrayed by Francessca Daniella-Baker, Bella Brown and Allie Daniel.
