Damon Daunno! He was the Orpheus in the original NYTW production (and is actually on Broadway now in Oklahoma!)

Eva Noblezada, Amber Gray, Patrick Page, More to Star in Hadestown on Broadway | Playbill

A quintet of performers will reprise their performances from the folk musical's recent London turn.

Noblezada (Miss Saigon) and De Shields (The Full Monty) will take on the roles of Eurydice and Hermes, which they played for the first time in the London run. The other three had previously taken the stage in the Anaïs Mitchell piece in earlier incarnations: Page (Saint Joan) as Hades, Gray (The Great Comet) as Persephone, and Carney (Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark) as Orpheus.

Additional casting will be confirmed at a later date.

Eva is playing Eurydice! I updated the text for everyone confused in the notes. Playbill made a mistake in the article and because I’m short on time I didn’t proofread it before posting. I apologize for any confusion.

@hadestown: So grateful to the audiences in London who have embraced our tale at the @nationaltheatre. Next stop, Broadway.

jordanshawuk: I’m really not ready to say goodbye to these people and this gem of a show. Hadestown has been an incredible experience from beginning to end - honestly never felt like this at the end of a contract. “We’re gonna sing it again” - one last time tonight before it heads to #Broadway 🌹 #Hadestown #NationalTheatre #MusicalTheatre

livevamaria: ...like no other. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I love you all. My heart hurts with joy looking at this. I’ve never been more fulfilled and uplifted in a show. I will never forget this group of magic humans. “As long as we stay with each other, than it will always be like this.” 😙🌌
