Re: Musicals You've Listened to, But Never Seen?

DA Absolutely wilful misunderstanding. Orpheus is portrayed as this cloud cuckoolander fuckboy who keeps perfecting his ~art~ while his girlfriend begs him to help put actual food on the table because she's starving and freezing and then when she's already gone when he tries to find her again he basically gets told "whoops she dead, what did you expect. Also didn't think you cared".

It's exaggeration from me. I'm anon who made secret some time ago how I dislike Hadestown, because I read their story similar. Orpheus is really annoying Teh Artist and I just can't stand him.
People point out, that she betrayed their union just in a more relatable way. And text of the musical says several time that "we shouldn't judge her" like we ARE judging

Except his art in this case is something that could fix the starving and freezing, which she did know and approve of--the problem is that he gets TOO caught up in it. And Hermes' line about "what do you care" could easily be a sort of test, as in "how much do you want to do this", especially given that the story turns out to be an endless cycle.

I just think it's disingenuous to say EITHER of them are wholly at fault, when both have their reasons and both make irreparable mistakes/choices.
