Hadestown


The Post-Apocalyptic Book club was fortunate to catch a performance of this original bluegrass opera at the historic Sixth & I Synagogue last night. Wittily written and fetchingly sung it transports the story of Eurydice & Orpheus from the Hades of ancient Greece to a "post apocalyptic Depression era company town hell." Shows will be performed in VT & CO, a CD featuring Ani DiFranco as Persephone and Anais Mitchell as Eurydice (pictured) is available.
