This New York Times Critics’ Pick takes you into the heart of the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded passengers and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them.

The tour is directed by Daniel Goldstein with musical staging by Richard J. Hinds, based on the original Broadway direction and choreography.

COME SEE HOW THE WORLD COULD BE.

Welcome to HADESTOWN, where a song can change your fate. Winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the 2020 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Theater Album, this acclaimed new show from celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and original director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812) is a love story for today... and always.

HADESTOWN intertwines two mythic tales — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — as it invites you on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Mitchell’s beguiling melodies and Chavkin’s poetic imagination pit industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. Performed by a vibrant ensemble of actors, dancers and singers, HADESTOWN is a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.

Join us March 10-12, 2025 for HADESTOWN, supported locally by Bravissima: Women Sponsoring the Arts.

The Martin Legacy

James C. Martin and Mary B. Martin were employed at Eastman Chemical Co. in Kingsport, Tenn. Both avid patrons of the arts, as well as talented chemists of some repute, their long-term support and gifts have transformed the arts at ETSU and in the region in unprecedented ways. After Mary passed away in 2008, the Mary B. Martin School of the Arts was established following a generous endowment from James C. Martin to provide support for the arts at ETSU and advocate for the arts regionally.

Through a series of arts events and other activities, the Martin School brings a new level of awareness and appreciation of the visual and performing arts to ETSU and the surrounding community. James Martin passed away in December 2015, but the Martins’ generosity leaves a legacy that will long be remembered.
