I can’t stand that TikTok trend that’s like “just saw Hadestown and my boyfriend is walking the entire way back to the hotel without looking back at me to prove Orpheus was a chump” because not only do they not get the whole point of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth they also Were Not Paying Attention to the musical they just saw.
Hate people who see WSS as “just a Romeo and Juliet retelling”. Hate people who see Hadestown as “Just an Orpheus and Eurydice retelling”.
Hate people who watch a musical that takes a classic story everyone knows and uses it to explore/critique our modern society and only see it as a funky retelling.
Not Getting The Point of WSS is one thing because it’s more subtle and it can be really easy to just see it as a modern R&J, especially if you don’t really know R&J.
How the fuck do you watch Hadestown and see it as just an O&E retelling? It is one of the most heavy-handed political musicals out there how are so many people missing the point?
Orpheus has to fail. Not because that’s how the Greek myth ends but because that’s the whole point of the message of Hadestown.
Social reform is hard. Changing the world is one of the most challenging things you can try to do. So often we see people try to make a difference in society, to change some kind of injustice in the world. And so often we see those people fail. It can feel so impossible to actually do some good in this fucked up world because we see these people who are smarter and stronger and more qualified than us fail over and over again.
Why do we even keep trying?
Because we have to.
Because one day, someone will try and they’ll succeed.
One day Orpheus won’t turn around.
One day the people of Hadestown will get to see someone escape and they’ll know they can escape too. Only then does the world get to change.
So we have to try. We have to keep singing the sad song, no matter how many times Orpheus turns around, because one day he won’t.
In the Greek myth, Orpheus fails because he loves Eurydice.
In Hadestown, Orpheus fails because we fail.
We try and we fail to make a difference. We try and we fail to change the world for the better. We try to see the world for what it could be and it keeps letting us down.
But we don’t give up. We don’t stop singing.
Hadestown is genuinely one of the best musicals ever. Full stop. This musical is one of the reasons i wish I was smarter because I would love to be able to do an entire thesis on this show and all the themes and messages in it. Some of them are subtle. Some of them aren’t.
It is not just an Orpheus and Eurydice retelling. I am begging people to hear the real message.
Never stop trying to change the world.
One day we’ll make it out of Hadestown.
We just have to keep singing the song.

Don’t mind me but there is Nothing I love consuming more than the trope of “the path one takes to avoid their destiny is the path that leads them directly to it”
Like
Odysseus really heard “I see a man that gets to make it home alive, but it’s no longer you” and “I see your wife with a man who is haunting, a man with a trail of bodies”
And said “fuck it. Fine. I’ll become a monster. I’ll be a horrible (debatable) person to everyone but those I care about to make it home. Fuck it, I’ll be cold like the gods tell me I must be, if that’s what it takes. Fuck this prophet, imma prove him wrong and get home and fuck up whoever this guy is who thinks he can get with my wife.”
BUT ITS HIM!!? The prophecy isn’t “someone else will make it home in your place, someone else will get to be with your wife” it’s Just. Not. Him. Anymore.
Because it’s a different version of him by the time he makes it home.
It’s a monster. With a trail of bodies.
And he hard right-turned right into that. By trying to avoid it. By trying to take fate into his own hands. But he’s playing right into it.
When does a man become a monster?
When there is no man left.
