Hadestown: Teen Edition is a full-length retelling of Anaïs Mitchell’s musical, adapted for teen performers and family audiences. This Masters Production is directed by Colton Archey, with musical direction by Jennifer Vaughn and choreography by Sami Axelson. The sung-through folk opera interweaves the love stories of Orpheus and Eurydice with those of Hades and Persephone, taking audiences on a journey to the underworld and back. Rooted in classic American folk and vintage New Orleans jazz, the score highlights themes of industry versus nature, doubt versus faith, and fear versus love. The Teen Edition is available only to school and youth groups with performers 19 years old and younger. An ASL interpreted performance is included in the run.

Each session adapts to the dogs and handlers present, and all experience levels are welcome.

Canine Good Citizen preparation is part of the curriculum. Puppies under one year may test for the AKC STAR Puppy title after six classes, which serves as a first step toward the Canine Good Citizen program. The class is led by instructor Aaron Wood and is available as a six-class package for $350. Since classes take place outdoors, plan to dress for the weather. Dogs must remain on leash. Dogs in heat are not permitted. Harsh corrections are not used, and e-collars, prong collars, shock collars, and retractable leashes are not allowed. Please give other dogs and handlers space, and plan for one adult handler per dog. Bring vaccination records with ID, high-value treats, a 6 foot non-retractable leash, a 15 to 20 foot long line for distance work, water for both handler and dog, waste bags, and an optional chair.
