HADESTOWN:

TEEN EDITION

Ages 14 - 18 Years

Monday 6th July - Saturday 11th July, 2026

Cost: $400.00

Blending folk, jazz and blues with poetic storytelling, Hadestown retells the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice — a young musician who journeys to the underworld in a daring attempt to rescue the woman he loves.

Set in a world of gods, workers and dreamers, the story explores love, hope and the courage it takes to keep believing even in the darkest of times.
