ABOUT THE SHOW
A new pop-rock musical comedy with Broadway ambitions,
Mythic makes its U.S. premiere in Cincinnati. The ancient Greek
myth of Persephone is turned on its ear, with the gods as chart-topping
pop stars, power hungry politicians and attention-seeking influencers.
Starstruck by Olympian celebrity, Persephone rebels against her mother
Demeter’s expectations and decides to forge her own path. When she
sneaks into a party at the Acropolis and meets brooding bad-boy Hades,
her life takes an unexpected turn into the Underworld. Mythic
played to critical acclaim in London and in a sold-out run in Montreal.
This new production will be directed and choreographed by nine-time Tony
Award-nominee and three-time Tony Award-winner Kathleen Marshall. If
you’ve ever been a teenager or a parent, you’ll love this entertaining,
coming-of-age tale.
“Each song could be a hit single in its own right.
Just heavenly.” — The Stage, UK
