Enjoy a first listen to “Wait For Me” lifted from the original West End cast recording of Hadestown.
Recorded live at the Lyric Theatre during their final matinee performance, the album will be released by Sing It Again Records this Friday, 6 December.
The track features Dónal Finn (as Orpheus), Melanie La Barrie (as Hermes), and the company. They are joined on the album by Grace Hodgett Young as Eurydice, as well as Gloria Onitiri (Persephone) and Zachary James (Hades).
The three Fates are Madeline Charlemagne, Allie Daniel and Bella Brown. Lauren Azania, Tiago Dhondt Bamberger, Beth Hinton-Lever, Waylon Jacobs, and Christopher Short play the Workers, with Lucinda Buckley, Ryesha Higgs, Miriam Nyarko, and Simon Oskarsson as swings.
With music, lyrics, and book by Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell, the award-winning show has direction by Tony Award winner Rachel Chavkin.
Hadestown – Live From London will be available in three physical formats: standard black vinyl, a limited edition deluxe gatefold “pop-up” vinyl, and on CD, as well as on digital download and streaming services.
