Orpheus (originated on Broadway by Reeve Carney) is one half of the tragic love story at the heart of the musical Hadestown.  The son of a muse, Orpheus is cared for by Hermes while he tries to finish a song to bring back spring.  He falls in love with Eurydice before she is tempted into the underworld by Hades, and he travels to hell to save her.  Orpheus is sensitive and sometimes a little oblivous.  He wears an off white shirt, grey pants, and brown leather suspenders, with black boots and a rust-red handkerchief.  Early in the musical, he also wears an apron.
