“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
Walk right behind two lovers tragic history. On the road to hell there were Orpheus and Eurydice, two lovebirds who were separated by Hades. The master of hell sent Eurydice to his own town after she accepted an offer to be fed and have a shelter, which she never had on earth. When she regrets her choice and misses her lover, Orpheus then gets on a mission to get her back, accompanied by his music. Walk trough two lovestories Eurydice/Orpheus and king Hades/queen Persephone. Waaaait for us, we're coming to the show. follow two classical myths twisted: Orpheus tries to get his fiancee back from hell with only his bravery and his songs, meanwhile Hades controlling behaviour is poisoning his relationship with Persephone. Tie your shoes and start your walking journey to the underworld.
An innovant musical with extraordinary decors. A constant walking treadmill representing the endless quest that getting out of the underworld is.
