ABOUT THE SHOW
Valentine's weekend, we will present Anaïs Mitchell's haunting, jazz-inflected folk opera Hadestown which follows Orpheus’ mythical quest to overcome Hades and regain the favor of his one true love, Eurydice. Join us for this ethereal and dark look at what can test relationships new and old, Love at first sight and...at last.
