Gather 'round, you vagabonds pickin' fruit and hoppin' freights. Anyone who's wondering, wondering why the winds have changed. I'll sing a song of a love gone wrong, between a mighty king and queen. Gather 'round and I'll sing a song Of Hades and Persephone.

🌟CASTING MY MUTUALS IN HADESTOWN!🌟
Why? Because I feel like it! 😂
Orpheus:
Sequoia (@flowers-floating-in-space, top)
Songbird (@deadboywalking227, middle)
Eden (@songboylyric, bottom)
Tumblr media
Nicholas Barasch as Orpheus in the picture. (National Tour)
Reasons for Hibiscus: You give me those ethereal flowery vibes that Orpheus has! /pos
Reasons for Serenade: One of your names is literally Songbird. Nuff said. (Though admittedly the songbird is technically Eurydice in the show, the HT Instagram sometimes refers to Orpheus as a songbird.)
Reasons for Eden: I don't know, you just give me Orpheus vibes- /pos
Eurydice:
Mischa (@that-f-cked-up-bitch, top)
Natalia (@nats-comet, middle)
Ivory (@https-envy, bottom)
Tumblr media
Amaya Braganza as Eurydice in the picture. (National Tour)
Reasons for Sydney: I just know you'd be a great Eurydice. How? I don't know! but I do XD
Reasons for Natalia: You have no idea how badly I need a Talia-ified version of "Flowers" and/or "All I've Ever Known". I just know you'd kill it /pos
Reasons for Ivory: You vaguely remind me of her and also I think you'd play up the scrappy/somewhat chaotic aspect of Eurydice's character in a super fun way.
Hermes:
Vellichor (@p-3-t-r-1-ch-0-r)
Tumblr media
André de Shields as Hermes in the picture. (Broadway)
Reasons: You are the cryptid, British, and affectionately bloodthirsty (/pos) Hermes that the world needs!
Persephone:
Zeep (@ziipzeepzop-eez)
Tumblr media
Jewelle Blackman as Persephone in the picture. (Broadway)
Reasons: You're both altos, and both of you have motherly/wine aunt energy! That's reason enough XD (when a zeep-ified version of "our lady of the underground" is brought into the world, i can die happy)
Hades:
Cipher (@cipher-of-the-round-table)
Tumblr media
Phillip Boykin as Hades in the picture. (Broadway)
Reasons: You just give me Hades vibes! I dunno!
The Fates:
Starling (@word-to-the-wise, left)
Charolette (@meowydoe, middle)
Satanic (@satanic-witchcraft, right)
Tumblr media
Dominique Kempf, Nyla Watson and Belén Moyano as The Fates in the picture. (National Tour)
Reasons for Piper: I feel like you'd have an absolute blast during When the Chips Are Down. Also a pink-haired Fate? Yes please!!
Reasons for Ginger: You'd be the most fun devious Fate ever (you'd be the one who's always waving at eurydice)
Reasons for Satanic: Satanic-ified version of "Nothing Changes"? Hell. Yes.

I was on Reddit and saw a post asking
Is Hadestown meant to be political?
and I was just . flabbergasted bc Hadestown is about:
capitalism, corrupting nature of greed, border policies, Shit Life Syndrome, fate, how love is not enough to sustain you but it's everything anyways, arts as enduring hope and inspiration, climate change, the power of a union, failed marriages, fear leading to isolation, jealousy,  unfair contracts, workplace power dynamics, mental illness, self doubt, suicide, seasonal affective disorder, bad coping mechanisms and escapism, the cyclical nature of life and of stories, telling the tales anyways, poverty, appreciating the underclass of invisible workers who keep society running, the enduring hope for change, and seeing the world as it is AND how it could become
and WHATEVER THE FUCK ELSE YOU BRING TO IT
because it's A R T
of course it's political! it's about everything

i'm sure someone else has said this, but i've figured out why tragedies draw me in so much. they're entirely preventable, but also have no other possible outcome. there's so many other paths the characters could take, enough to give you hope, but because they are who they are, they can take no other than the one of tragedy. tradegies are tragedies because the characters can't be anyone but themselves.
which is of course, the definition of a tragedy, but i've read so many books that are supposed to be tragedies, but they just never hit right, and this is why. there is no other option that will be taken, there is no drive of the characters having no other choice because chosing different would be a betrayal of themselves.
that's the shit i love, and i need more of it, so badly

The duality of Hadestown Hades is just amazing
He is such a charismatic antagonist in the entirety of 'Why we build the wall' and Chant reprise where he basically roars "SING!!!! For an old man...' It never fails to send shivers down my spine
But on the other hand his laugh sometimes sounds like 'hee hee hee' and he complains about how 'women are so seasonal' like he's some cartoon villain going through a divorce
It's so unintentionally funny, or maybe it's intentional? Either way, it's great
