The Woodhaven Theatre Company is set to close its 2024-2025 season with the production of Hadestown: Teen Edition, a powerful reimagining of the Tony Award-winning musical that has captivated audiences around the world.
Performances will take place at 7:00 PM on May 8, 9, and 10 at the Woodhaven High School Auditorium, located at 24787 Van Horn in Brownstown. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students, and will be available at the door beginning one hour before each performance.
Hadestown intertwines two iconic love stories from Greek mythology - those of Orpheus and Eurydice, and Hades and Persephone - in a stunning, deeply emotional journey to the underworld and back. With its soulful score and poetic storytelling, the musical invites audiences to imagine a better world through the power of hope, sacrifice, and song.
Hailed as “big, beautiful and emotionally blasting” by The Guardian, Hadestown won eight Tony Awards including Best Musical and earned the Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album. Since its Broadway debut, it has been seen by over three million people and streamed more than half a billion times, cementing its status as a cultural phenomenon.
“This is one of the most artistically ambitious productions we’ve ever taken on,” said the show’s director, Michael Clemons. “Our students have risen to the challenge of this beautifully complex show with maturity, passion, and incredible talent. We can’t wait for the community to experience their work.”
Produced by the award-winning Woodhaven Theatre Company, Hadestown: Teen Edition marks the culmination of another stellar season for the program, which has earned statewide recognition as MIFA High School Theatre State Champions in 2021, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The company continues to deliver top-tier educational theatre experiences that inspire both students and audiences alike.
