Uintah High Theatre’s run of Hadestown has received high praise, including from local theatre gurus. Andrew Bentley has performed on every local stage over the years and provided a review after attending earlier this week, emphasizing the impressive chorus and band in addition to the talented lead performers. “In class you study about how a Greek chorus is supposed to operate. I never thought it was something that would have been something impressive to see,” shared Bentley. “My mind has been changed. The difference in learning about it and seeing one in action being like seeing a schematic of a plane versus seeing flight for the first time…This chorus would have been great in any ensemble for a regular show, but seeing them function as a full blown Greek chorus was next level.” As for the band, Bentley admits there were times he forgot it wasn’t a track, thinking it must be pre-recorded thanks to the quality and talent. The entire review was shared on the Uintah High Theatre Facebook page. The final opportunity to see Hadestown: Teen Edition on the Uintah stage is tomorrow night.
