Jordan Fisher, who most recently starred as Anthony in the current Broadway revival of Sweeney Todd, will take over the role of Orpheus in Hadestown on Broadway. Reeve Carney will play his final performance as Orpheus on Sunday 19 November 2023 with Fisher taking over the role the following night, on Monday 20 November.

Says Fisher:

First, I must thank Reeve for the magic he made in Orpheus. An absolutely historic run and performance. His unrelenting heart and soul is deeply embedded in this role and in this story. I'm beyond honored and grateful for the opportunity to step in and steward such a beautifully crafted character. My wife, son and I have been jamming to the cast album for a long time. It's been a dream to be able to join the party! Specifically in this role. This tale is one that truly must be told again and again.
