Hi! Hadestown is my favorite musical, even thought im from Latinoamérica so tecnically I've never seen a Broadway musical. But my passion for musical theater made me look for every bit of content the internet could offer. I wanted to know, what's your best advice for people who want to work in musical theater but live in places where is not common or accesible? Thanks!

[hadestownofficial]

Has Timothy been hit by any of the lamps? Also you guys and the show are gifts to humanity

[hadestownofficial]

cookies or cake?

[hadestownofficial]

any favorite musicals (besides hadestown of course)?

Masterpiece!

[hadestownofficial]

What was the best part of being in this production for both of you?

[hadestownofficial]

Bit of an odd question here, but when I saw the show I noticed during "Chips are Down" Eurydice goes up to Hermes and offers him her ticket (the 2 coins). He then shows her 2 different coins in response, with a serious expression on his face. What does this mean? What interaction is going on here?

[hadestownofficial]

Were there any actors in the show that you knew of prior to working with them? Was it exciting getting to meet them?

And by Jessie Ryan... I mean the lovely Jessie Shelton. Yikes!
