Broadway enthusiasts in Fort Lauderdale are presently getting a taste of the mythology-infused musical "Hadestown" at the Broward Center, with performances ongoing until January 21. The 2019 Tony Awards darling, helmed by the creative prowess of Anaïs Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin, is brought to life by a talented cast that includes J. Antonio Rodriguez, a University of Oklahoma alum hailing from Mexican-American roots, who is currently performing as Orpheus, as per a report from Local10 News.

Shifting the spotlight to the Great White Way, "Hadestown" is poised for a cast shakeup next month. Lola Tung, fresh off her on-screen success in Amazon Prime's "The Summer I Turned Pretty," is slated to make her Broadway debut, stepping into the shoes of Eurydice starting February 9, a role previously filled by Solea Pfeiffer whose final bow will be on February 4, according to Deadline. Tung's limited engagement is penciled in until March 17, with her anticipation for the role palpable, as she expressed in a statement obtained by Deadline: "I saw Hadestown in February of 2020 and immediately fell in love with the show."

Ani DiFranco, the illustrious Grammy winner, is set to join hands with Tung, taking over Betty Who's role as Persephone beginning February 9, and is expected to grace the stage until June 30. It's a whirlwind of new talent and seasoned veterans meshing on the storied stage of the Walter Kerr Theatre. Additionally, "Hadestown" boasts the performances of notable actors like Jordan Fisher, Lillias White, and Phillip Boykin, catering to audiences with a blend of formidable Broadway prowess.

This significant crossover of talent between screen and stage symbolizes the permeable boundary of entertainment realms. As for Lola Tung, stepping into a Broadway production of this caliber represents a noted climb in her still burgeoning career, fulfilling dreams harbored since her middle school musical days. Tung told Deadline about adding "Hadestown" to her "little list of dream shows" in her mind upon witnessing the musical's magic. Theatergoers can only wait with bated breath as the new faces join the cast, reinvigorating the show's dynamic and ensuring that its underground tale of love and determination continues to resonate with fresh fervor.
