“Hadestown” borrows from Greek myth to tell the story of musician Orpheus following his love Eurydice into the underworld to bring her back. Only in this version, Orpheus is a poor singer-songwriter and Eurydice is a starving and cold young woman who goes to work in a hellish industrial factory called Hadestown.
