Hadestown Tickets - Lyric Theatre

The acclaimed Broadway musical HADESTOWN by singer-songwriter Anais Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin made its much-anticipated West End premiere at the Lyric Theatre in February 2024 and has kept audiences enthralled ever since.

HADESTOWN transports audiences onto an unforgettable journey to the underworld and back, and intertwines two mythical love stories – one of young dreamers Eurydice and Orpheus, and the other of King Hades and his wife Persephone in a deeply defiant, resonant and hopeful theatrical experience, HADESTOWN is your invitation to use your imagination to look at how the world could be.

HADESTOWN is the winner of 8 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the Grammy Award® for Best Musical Theatre Album with Forbes describing the musical as ‘an epic celebration of music, togetherness and hope’

The Lyric Theatre is a medium size West End theatre located at the bottom of Shaftesbury Avenue in the heart of London's theatreland and has four levels with a capacity of 1061 seats.

Due to support pillars situated throughout the venue, there are restricted views in certain areas of the auditorium which can result in major viewing obstructions. The rows all curve into a horseshoe shape, which causes the seats at the very end of the rows to suffer from side-angle views of the stage.

Premium seats in the theatre are located in rows F-J in the centre of the Stalls which have the best view overall view of the stage along with seats in the front and centre of the Dress Circle which will suit patrons who prefer to view the stage from an elevated position. Due to the number of pillars and also the shape of the auditorium in the Lyric Theatre, several restricted view seats are regularly sold at a lower cost to suit patrons on a budget or lastminute bargain hunters searching for cheap Hadestown tickets. Studying the seating plan to exploit the cut-off points within the pricing structure can also bring dividends as the seats all around the premium seats in the Stalls can offer similar views in lower price bands.

Private boxes are also available in the Lyric Theatre which is primarily located down the sides of the Dress Circle which has between two and three seats and contains freestanding chairs allowing patrons to maximize both their view and comfort and are usually priced comparably to seats in the Grand Circle.

How Can I Book Cheap Tickets To Hadestown?

There is often strong demand for tickets during peak times such as weekends and school holidays so these times should be avoided it if you are looking for bargains.  There are however four tiers in the venue and with eight shows per week to fill there is usually value to be found in the ticket price for off peak midweek performances as well as in some of the cheaper seats in the top two tiers.

Are There Any Restricted View Seats That Should Be Avoided When Booking Tickets To Hadestown?

The venue has four separate levels, with the best seats being mostly located in the stalls on the ground floor and the dress circle on the first floor.  There are some seats that feature a very slightly obscured view in the rear stalls which is caused by the overhang from the dress circle and there are also two supportive pillars that cause issues in rows Q and R.  Pillars also cause problems in the dress circle from row F and beyond and the shallow raking of the seats can be an issue for shorter patrons.  The upper circle on the second floor offers a pretty good view despite the height above the stage and is not affected by the overhang from the balcony although it is a little cramped but the balcony itself is very high up with several sections on the sides featuring quite bad restrictions and should maybe avoided by people suffering from vertigo although the seats in this section in the centre do offer a clear view of the stage.  It is always highly recommended to study the seating plan thoroughly before booking tickets at the Lyric Theatre to ensure complete transparency and peace of mind over your purchase.

Where Is The Best Place To Book Tickets To Hadestown?

The price of tickets will always be determined by market forces and it is likely with popular shows that tickets for weekend performances will usually be in great demand.  This would mean that to avoid booking fees for peak performances it may be beneficial to book direct from the box office rather than online, however for off peak shows during the quieter months such as November, January and February as well as the weeks that follow on from school holidays there is a possibility of discounted seats to be found online and through the official retail outlets in and around Leicester Square.

Is It Cheaper To Book Tickets To Hadestown Midweek?

The short answer to this is yes, although this is not an exact science and not set in stone!  With popular shows the likelihood is that the demand for tickets will outweigh the supply for peak performances such as weekends and school holidays for a period at least.  There are four different levels to the theatre though and multiple price bands that can offer good value for lastminute bargain hunters who are prepared to study the seating plan thoroughly prior to purchase.
