The inspired Disney animated film is now a mythical new musical adventure!

Hercules is the divinely funny story of an honest-to-Zeus hero on a quest to discover who he is and where he belongs. Is love a possibility too? Oh, Hades, yes!

The roof-raising score by Alan Menken and David Zippel features all the hits you love from the film, including the Oscar-nominated song "Go The Distance", as well as "Zero to Hero" and "I Won’t Say (I’m in Love)", along with new songs written for the stage.

The show features a new book by Kwame Kwei-Armah (artistic director of London’s Young Vic) and Tony Award® winner Robert Horn (Tootsie), and direction by Obie Award-winning Lear deBessonet.

This cheeky, Greeky MUSE-ical earned a New York Times' Critic’s Pick for its original Public Theater production in Central Park, with the New York Post cheering it’s "wise-cracking, heartfelt and emotionally rich." And that’s the gospel truth!

What is Disney's Hercules about?

Disney's Hercules is a 1997 animated musical fantasy film that follows the story of Hercules, the son of the Greek gods Zeus and Hera. As a baby, Hercules is kidnapped by Hades, the god of the underworld, and turned into a mortal. 

Raised on Earth, Hercules discovers his divine heritage and learns that to return to Mount Olympus, he must become a true hero. With the help of his friends Pegasus and Philoctetes (Phil), Hercules embarks on a journey to prove himself. Along the way, he battles various monsters and villains, including Hades, who seeks to overthrow Zeus.

The film is known for its vibrant animation, catchy gospel-inspired songs, and a mix of humour and compelling story-telling. It is regarded as one of the best Disney films from the Disney Renaissance era (1989 to 1999).

In 2025, Hercules debuts as a musical on London's West End at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
