Plot Synopsis
Adapted from the 1980 film with Olivia Newton-John, Xanadu follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California. Her quest: to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, achieve his greatest artistic creation - the first roller disco (hey, it’s 1980!). When Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny however, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation and chaos abounds.
This hilarious, roller skating, musical adventure is about following your dreams despite the limitations others set for you. Over the top, tongue-in-cheek fun, the show rolls along to the original hit score and includes, “Magic,” “All Over The World,” “Suddenly,” “I’m Alive,” “Evil Woman,” “Have You Never Been Mellow,” and of course, “Xanadu.”
