Why do we turn away when our brother is bleeding? Why do we build the wall and then call it freedom? If we're free tell me why I can't look in my brother's eye? Keep your head!

Theatre tumblr - you're a thing right?

I call for aid!

I am revisiting happy memories of seeing Hadestown London back when it first came to the Lyric.

I only got to see it once (for which I'm GUTTED, I would have LOVED to see Finn in the show at least once more, but, you know, life, money, time...). The date was:

22 March 2024. Evening show.

But listen, what I'm trying to remember is whoever was playing HADES that performance.

Because I swear they were NOT the actor in the soundtrack, Zachary James.

I remember them YOUNGER looking. And I remember their Hades as SUPER UNIQUE. As having an INTENSELY BRITISH ACCENT, not the usual gravely American CEO drawl. It clashed hugely with my expectations, but I ended up really loving it. It made Hades seem like one of those rich, British upper class boys who read and quote Art of War and all those 'how to get rich quick' books and think they are smart, world-wise businessmen at, like, only 25 or whatever. Privledged kids who get put in charge of massive corporations thanks to their daddy's money, but act like they worked their way up. So when he got to 'sing, for an OLD man' line it struck as really ironic, cos he seemed not much older than Finn. It was just that he'd grown so arrogant and self-absorbed he BELIEVED he was vastly superior.

And, idk, the striking contrast with Finn's raw, IRISH working class Orpheus and that easy life BRITISH UPPER CLASS rich kid Hades really worked for me.

Am I going mad here remembering this?

Did our show have an understudy?? (I don't recall it being announced or written up anywhere, but I was rather distracted by general excitement at the time!)

My programme lists 2 Hades understudies. The one that looks possible from the picture is Christopher Short, I think... so, any chance anyone can confirm if he DID perform that night? Or better, any chance anyone has CLIPS of his Hades?

Because I just, I'm suddenly DESPERATE to experience THIS PERFORMANCE again in some way. It's eating at my brain!
