InReelLife why we build the wall was written long before Trump declared a wall to block off immigrants so it has nothing to do with that I that is why you were freaking out during that song

[@benlutostanski7755]

Why We Build the Wall was written back in 2010, waaaayyy before Trump's campaign

[@mbriggssys]

its an old song written by the God's

[@JulietteVeronica1201]

Maybe I’m digging too much into this but when Eurydice was in the underworld and Orpheus was still on land, it reminded me of the separation between families that had happened in the news.

[@pileofsaltOG]

She said 2006

[@nayakurdy7695]

Still works tho

[@decietfuldolphin986]

It was 2006 :)

[@insertpoetryhere8567]

"Is this musical going to be all 'Oooooooooo's?" No. It's going to be all, "La la la la la la."

[@pialestrange5826]

i love how he is complaining about hades being an 'ass' when he just doesn't know how to show his love and he thinks that Persephone wants the warmth and light bc she is the goddess of spring and warmth but really she loves the cold and darkness. These two hurt my heart so much

[@maiawong9703]

Pia Lestrange except Persephone likes spring and being outdoors but hades is scared she'll leave him so he brings her down early

[@audreyrasmussen540]

1:17 *gently slides Sister Act in your direction* *Casually throws in Anastasia and Come From Away, because why not*

[@audreyrasmussen540]

I just felt like throwing in the last two...on second thought that was probably too much to slide over.

Lets be honest When The Chips Are Down is the most Slytherin song to ever exist

[@beauxrem]

Can I also kinda put up a little food for thought? Why We Build the Wall was actually written based off of the Berlin Wall, the style of music similar the time period.

[@carolkoski4875]

Fun fact: Hadestown (and, consequently, Why We Build The Wall) was written way before Orange Dude ran for president

[@moxiegirl2012]

8:24 idk why but “they’re doing a little temptation dancing” mad me sNORT 😂

[@aster5076]

Mentions heracles All percy jackson stans: 🔪

[@mayadargeon2172]

When you know the story, you know how it end, but you still hope that this is gonna finish well ... My favorite version of the end of their story is a nymph hearing Orpheus sing about his lost love, become jealous and kill him. He end in The Underworld, with Hades letting him and Eurydice walk along the styx forever, singing their love and happiness. (Better than the end where the gods keep him alive to get the chance of hearing him sing forever ...)

[@largeandmildlythreateningr2966]

"groovier and doesn't suck" I'm crying lmao

[@angelaphsiao]

"Come Home With Me" *is* Orpheus not coming on too strong

[@lobalee1873]

Everything sentence this guy says could be a meme. I cried laughing at his reactions to many times to count. One of the highlights was definitely "do NOT fly south, girl! Stay the ------ where you are!"

[@evangelinerose3826]

"The three old women with the eye. From Hercules." That was actually the Gray Sisters! Both trios have magnificent tales! :)

[@giraffe6856]

I think in Come Home With Me, if you listen to the concept album, whenever Orpheus sings it always sound like 3 more people singing together Probably because she (Anais) wanted Orpheus to sound more surreal since he’s a son of a muse

[@Brennataco]

*Get Salsa* Iconic

[@musicallover4023]

See I love hadestown but I refer to it as Reeve Carney singing la la la for 2 hours straight

"wait hold up, does every piece of dialogue in this thing have to rhyme? it's getting really annoying this time. i mean i get it, it adds some flavour. but was it really needed for this artistic endeavour?" ~slow claps~

[@iusethisnameformygoogleacc1013]

"What have we got that they should want? We have a wall to work upon" is possibly the most beautiful line in this whole goddamn thing because it suddenly changes the context for everything previous to it in the song. It isn't about keeping out the 'enemy' or the poor, the wall keeps out poverty by giving them meaningless busywork to do for a living. He makes work for idle hands - and that work exists for no real reason beyond keeping those hands from getting idle for too long.

[@alessa.]

"We get it ther is a railroad line" YES

"It’s either blazing hot or freezing cold, I didn’t know global warming started 3,000 years ago."

Eva Noblezada is a Chaotic and beautiful queen who everyone should love. Change my mind.

[@singmeunder]

Ah, so this is how people who have no background knowledge on actual Greek Mythology beyond Disney and a series of books that are _very much inspiration only_ react to Hadestown. Hadestown is a work of genius, and there are so many references. It feels like so many of them pass over the heads of the common folk. But like, same. Eva Noblezada can also punch me and I'd thank her.

[@kassiekelnhofer3544]

Ashe Kay thank you for saying that. I spent 3 years reading about Greek mythology and I hate Disney Heracles and the commoners who don’t know anything about Greek mythology and react like this. There’s deeper meaning to everything!

[@largeandmildlythreateningr2966]

"the common folk" calm down, reading myths in middle school doesn't make you special, half of us did

[@RoseBug42]

"I swear Eva noblezada could punch me in the throat and I'd thank her" okay MOOD
