🌟CASTING MY MUTUALS IN HADESTOWN!🌟

Why? Because I feel like it! 😂

Orpheus:

Sequoia (@flowers-floating-in-space, top)

Songbird (@deadboywalking227, middle)

Eden (@songboylyric, bottom)

Nicholas Barasch as Orpheus in the picture. (National Tour)

Reasons for Hibiscus: You give me those ethereal flowery vibes that Orpheus has! /pos

Reasons for Serenade: One of your names is literally Songbird. Nuff said. (Though admittedly the songbird is technically Eurydice in the show, the HT Instagram sometimes refers to Orpheus as a songbird.)

Reasons for Eden: I don't know, you just give me Orpheus vibes- /pos

Eurydice:

Mischa (@that-f-cked-up-bitch, top)

Natalia (@nats-comet, middle)

Ivory (@https-envy, bottom)

Amaya Braganza as Eurydice in the picture. (National Tour)

Reasons for Sydney: I just know you'd be a great Eurydice. How? I don't know! but I do XD

Reasons for Natalia: You have no idea how badly I need a Talia-ified version of "Flowers" and/or "All I've Ever Known". I just know you'd kill it /pos

Reasons for Ivory: You vaguely remind me of her and also I think you'd play up the scrappy/somewhat chaotic aspect of Eurydice's character in a super fun way.

Hermes:

Vellichor (@p-3-t-r-1-ch-0-r)

André de Shields as Hermes in the picture. (Broadway)

Reasons: You are the cryptid, British, and affectionately bloodthirsty (/pos) Hermes that the world needs!

Persephone:

Zeep (@ziipzeepzop-eez)

Jewelle Blackman as Persephone in the picture. (Broadway)

Reasons: You're both altos, and both of you have motherly/wine aunt energy! That's reason enough XD (when a zeep-ified version of "our lady of the underground" is brought into the world, i can die happy)

Hades:

Cipher (@cipher-of-the-round-table)

Phillip Boykin as Hades in the picture. (Broadway)

Reasons: You just give me Hades vibes! I dunno!

The Fates:

Starling (@word-to-the-wise, left)

Charolette (@meowydoe, middle)

Satanic (@satanic-witchcraft, right)

Dominique Kempf, Nyla Watson and Belén Moyano as The Fates in the picture. (National Tour)

Reasons for Piper: I feel like you'd have an absolute blast during When the Chips Are Down. Also a pink-haired Fate? Yes please!!

Reasons for Ginger: You'd be the most fun devious Fate ever (you'd be the one who's always waving at eurydice)

Reasons for Satanic: Satanic-ified version of "Nothing Changes"? Hell. Yes.
