Mythic

What is Mythic about?

Mythic is an original musical that retells the Greek myth of Persephone with a contemporary pop-rock sensibility. When Persephone, daughter of the harvest goddess Demeter, ventures into the Underworld and falls for Hades, her mother's grief plunges the world into winter. The musical explores the universal story of a daughter's need for independence and a mother's struggle to let go, set against a backdrop of feuding gods, spectacular staging, and a score that blends Greek drama with modern musical energy.

Why see Mythic?

The score is outstanding — powerful, emotional, and full of songs that stay with you long after the show. The reimagining of Greek mythology through a contemporary lens makes ancient stories feel immediate and relevant, particularly the mother-daughter relationship at the heart of the piece. The production values are strong, and the ensemble cast brings the gods and mortals to vivid life. For fans of musicals who want something different from the standard West End fare, Mythic is a thrilling discovery.
