Hadestown is at the Academy of Music from Wednesday, April 10th through Sunday, April 14th. A newer show, based on stories as old as they come, with a non-stop incredible soundtrack throughout.
I had the opportunity to speak with Will Mann, who plays Hermes in the show. He talks about life on tour, favorite roles, show stopping numbers, and gives a basic rundown of what's in store for us on this leg of the Hadestown National Tour. Here's our conversation:[audio mp3="https://957benfm.com/uploads/2024/04/Hadestown-Will-Mann.mp3"][/audio]
The Music
Hadestown won 8 Tony Awards in 2019 including Best Musical, and a Grammy Award in 2020 for for Best Musical Theater Album for the incredible soundtrack to the show.
Hadestown has no dialogue, just incredible non-stop music throughout, and I dare you to not tap your foot to some of the songs. From the opening scene we're immediately thrown into the world of the characters and absolutely hooked to the catchy music of this show.
Ensemble Arts Philly absolutely kills it with their Broadway Philadelphia lineup every season, and we're so lucky to have these incredible national tours here locally to enjoy. This season has been action packed and continues to shine with Hadestown.
Hadestown is at the Academy of Music THIS Week
Wednesday, April 10th through Sunday, April 14th. Don't miss it!
