The Ned Presents “Hadestown: Teen Edition”

The Ned presents the Jackson Teen Theatre in Hadestown: Teen Edition, a reimagining of the ancient myth of Orpheus and Eurydice by Anais Mitchell.

Hadestown: Teen Edition explores timeless themes—love, trust, sacrifice, and the power of storytelling.

Tickets are $17 for adults; $15 for students, seniors, and military. Tickets can be purchased by calling the Ned offices at (731) 425-8397 or through the Ned’s website. Large groups should call to book. A sensory-friendly performance is scheduled for 7 PM, Saturday, August 23.

Hadestown: Teen Edition blends myth, music, and modern themes in a bold retelling of the ancient Greek tales of Orpheus and Eurydice, and Hades and Persephone. The story follows Orpheus—a young musician—on a daring journey to the underworld to save Eurydice, who’s been drawn into Hadestown by promises of safety. There, she discovers a bleak world of control and endless work. With a dynamic score rooted in folk, jazz, and blues, Hadestown explores love, sacrifice, power, and hope.
