Moviegoers are saying
This filmed Broadway production of 'Hadestown' has audiences sobbing and singing along to what they're calling one of the most beautiful musicals ever created. Despite some mixed feelings about certain performances (particularly Reeve's Orpheus), viewers are praising the stunning cinematography, emotional depth, and the way this pro-shot captures the magic of live theater for those who can't access Broadway.

    All along, the villain of the story was never Hades or the fates. Eurydice didn’t trust Orpheus to finish the song in time. Hades didn’t trust Persephone to always return to him. Orpheus didn’t trust Eurydice enough to believe her hunger had changed. The villain here is…

    Normalise officially filming theatre and distributing it in cinemas. Theatre deserves to be preserved and accessible to people who don't live in theatre-cities and/or can't afford the tickets to see the shows live.

    Hadestown: The Musical

    The best musical I’ve ever gotten to experience live (at least for now since Epic isn’t live yet). I saw it on Broadway and was blown away. The set was phenomenal, the world was so easy to be sucked into, the music was incredible, and the story was so emotionally powerful.

    Such an enjoyable watch. Glad this cast in the production was immortalized for future generations to enjoy. Scratches the each for musical theater if you can’t get yourself to a live production.

    I usually enjoy musicals but this one was NOT for me. Didn’t like the main dudes voice and the people in the theater smelled bad and were weird.

    This is for my viewing of the pro shot theatrical release from back on July 24th,2026 HADESTOWN Taking for granted what star crossed lovers once had For some time now, I have been reflecting on the concepts of Star Crossed lovers, and ultimately, the stories that surround it make the idea…

    This ProShot was everything I wanted and cements Hadestown as my favorite musical; I think everyone should see this at least once, and I’m just waiting for my BluRay!

    First time seeing this show and didn’t know what to expect. I thought Eurydice’s voice was the standout and enjoyed the story, music, and the way it was filmed. I felt like some of the other characters’ voices weren’t as good but overall still was a captivating…
