Saw Hadestown pro-shot yesterday and I’m using it as an excuse to nerd about film to a bunch of theatre kids.

Pro-shots are great just for the accessibility alone, but part of the reason I love them more than just a static tape of a show is because of the EDITING!!! Theatre is already such an intimate medium but with the right editing and camerawork you can take shit to a whole new level that simply can’t be achieved on stage

The close ups of Orpheus during Doubt Comes In so you also couldn’t see anything through the darkness? The framing of the Workers and the Fates in Wait For Me as they stare down Orpheus, emphasizing the danger and their intimidation?? Just… Epic III?? In general?????? Put this on streaming yesterday so I can dissect the shit out of it cus my memory is really bad rn

'theatre is dying' okay but everyone is flocking to see a beautiful hit musical now that it's been released in the cinema, something more affordable and accessible to most people, and ticket sales in the west end in particular have spiked

'cinema is dying' okay but everyone is flocking to their local cinema to see a beautiful hit musical, and so many have shown up this weekend that licensers decided to extend its theatrical release for another week, a massive rarity in the current climate

maybe the answer to saving art is... seeing art?? and making art accessible??

[throo]

Wonderful fun fact for you! The Hadestown proshot has gotten over 10 million in box office sales in North America during opening weekend. The only other proshot that has garnered more is Hamilton Edit: it’s surpassed Hamilton

While it was only a planned to be in theaters for five days, multiple theaters will be extending it so you still have a chance (even if you’re not a theater person I highly recommend you go watch it)

the thing about orpheus is that he doesn't turn because he loves eurydice. he turns because paradoxically he is afraid to lose her. hes turned many times and found people have disappeared when he wasn't looking (his mother, persephone in act 1, eurydice in act 1). he loves eurydice, but by act 2 he's seen the way the world is. he has to turn. one last look is better than never seeing her again. hadestown isn't about death, its about self destruction and how grief paints your actions in the present.

Not enough people talking about Andre De Shields. That man has such a presence, such a graceful way of moving. Blessed are those who see the proshot for they have experienced thee one and only Andre De Shields.

i really really really really really like hadestown's repeated use of "eurydice was a hungry girl" because at first pass you might think oh, she's scrappy and street smart and her ambition is going to be the foil to orpheus's idealist romanticism. but nope! no she is literally hungry. she is starving. that is her motivator and everybody knows it. she loves, oh she does, but she can't be fucking blamed for fulfilling her physical needs first.

With all this discussion about the Hadestown pro shot I wanted to share my potentially controversial opinion, which is that Reeve Carney is actually a great Orpheus. I know that a lot of people don’t like his voice, or feel that his voice feels jarring or out of place next to his costars on the Hadestown OBC album and in the pro shot, but that’s actually why I think he’s so impactful as Orpheus.

For starters, the entire Original Broadway cast of Hadestown is incredibly talented, and they all have very distinct voices that add so much personality and depth to their characters, but you can tell with the entirety of the main cast that they all still have that Broadway sound. While their voices are unique, they still feel very musical theatre. But Reeve Carney’s voice doesn’t feel like something I would expect to hear in a Broadway musical, it’s sits more in that folk-rock timbre. And while I don’t think it would work for other roles on Broadway (see his run in Great Gatsby — that I was admittedly not a fan of) I think it actually works really well for Orpheus. Orpheus is the son of a muse. His voice has been blessed by the Gods themselves, and in a cast of incredibly talented people, Orpheus should stand out vocally. The colour and timbre of Reeve Carney’s voice is very distinct from the rest of his cast, and provides such a stark contrast to the rest of the world around them, which sits at this intersection between your typical Broadway sound and jazz.

While I love many of the other (Orpheuses? Orphei? Whats the plural of Orpheus?) I feel that when Orpheus is singing with that typical Broadway or BFA sound, as beautiful as it might sound, that contrast that makes Orpheus stand out so much from the rest of the world around him is lost. Vocally and technically it’s a beautiful performance, yes, but I personally feel like the impact of Orpheus is lost when he sounds like the rest of his cast. Again, not a dig on anyone who’s played Orpheus, they’re all very talented. This is just my opinion.

I’m not saying that you have to love Reeve Carney’s voice. After all, art is subjective, everyone has different tastes, and Reeve Carney’s voice does have a very unique sound to it that might not sit well with everyone, especially musical theatre fans who are more familiar to a certain kind of sound. But there’s a difference between not caring for someone’s voice and actively putting them down every time you get the chance to. Reeve Carney’s portrayal as Orpheus had a huge impact on the show, whether you like it or not.

Anyways, I want more unique voices on Broadway and the Hadestown proshot was amazing to see in theatres.

[movieswithtrains]

Yes, (it is heavily implied) that Hadestown (2026) has a train in it

[giiyus]

there was something so beautiful in the way that hades tosses his cane and continues dancing with persephone in the proshot. his little smile, her face after seeing him toss it, and their hug after brought tears to my eyes

love the library. there's no risk. you can take out a book and go "wow this sucks" and just give it back. and when you do that you're still making the library's Number Go Up so you'll be able to roll the dice on even more books. all for the low low price of free/you already paid for it with your tax money so you might as well use it
