The journey to the underworld is about to go national, as the acclaimed musical Hadestown prepares to leave London’s West End and set out on its first-ever UK and Ireland tour, marking a major milestone for one of modern theatre’s most celebrated productions.
This announcement confirms that the Tony Award-winning musical, which has already captivated millions of theatre fans worldwide, will open its touring run at Curve in Leicester on the 19th of February 2027. From there, the production is expected to travel across major cities in the United Kingdom, with additional dates including Dublin still to be officially confirmed. For audiences outside London, this marks a rare opportunity to experience a show that has become a defining title of contemporary musical theatre.
First developed with roots at the National Theatre before transferring to the West End, the production has earned widespread critical acclaim, winning multiple major awards and building a global following. Its story, which reimagines the ancient Greek myths of Orpheus and Eurydice alongside Hades and Persephone, is paired with a distinctive score blending folk, jazz and blues influences. The result is a theatrical experience that has been praised for both its emotional depth and its musical originality.

Producers say the decision to launch a full UK and Ireland tour reflects the show’s enduring popularity and its ability to connect with audiences far beyond London.
