My dream role is Orpheus.

it would be so cool to play orpheus in hadestown. this story has been told for years, through books and plays and tales around bonfires. and he always turns around. now it’s your turn to tell it. and you will turn around, like the many before you, like orpheus himself. you always will. he always will.

I had seen a joke about Orpheus and Eurydice, but looking back, I don't laugh so much anymore

What's the point of making Cooper a cannibal if they're not going to do Hannigram levels of metaphors and subtext?

“m/f romances are ALWAYS boring” - tell me you haven’t seen the part in Hadestown where Orpheus and Eurydice are reunited in the underworld and she launches herself into his arms and he lifts her up and spins her around and for one brief moment, no matter how many times you’ve heard the story before, you’re convinced that it will all work out this time

without telling me you haven’t seen it

[fangingaround]

not normal about orpheus and eurydice. you loved someone so much it opened the stones of the underworld. so much that death had to listen. so much that everything stopped for your love. so much that you turned around. so much that even when you did wrong. she forgave you.

It breaks my heart knowing that Act One!Orpheus wouldn't turn around. He's hopeful. He's optimistic. He believes in all the good in the world even when the world is a cruel and cold place

But Act Two! Orpheus has seen how the world is. He's seen how cruel and cold that it is. He forgets that there can be hope. And that is one of the most breaking things about the musical, in my opinion. Watching this man lose not just the woman that he loves, but all the hope that he had. Watching as he learns that the world isn't this happy and wonderful and beautiful place that he dreams about.
