This hilarious, roller-skating musical adventure about following your dreams despite the limitations others set for you rolls along to the original hit score composed by pop-rock legends Jeff Lynne and John Farrar.
Set in the magical 1980s, Xanadu follows the journey of a Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mount Olympus to Venice Beach, California, on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first roller disco! (Hey, it's 1980!)
Kira's efforts are thwarted by her jealous sisters and a forbidden love. Featuring classic hits such as “Magic,” “All Over the World,” “Suddenly,” and the title song “Xanadu,” this musical comedy is a nostalgic trip that will have you laughing and dancing in your seat.
