Synopsis

Xanadu, a fun-filled pop rock musical based on the 1980’s cult classic movie of the same name. Kira, a Greek muse, descends from Mount Olympus to Venice Beach, California, 1980, to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, in his goal to open a roller disco. But when Kira falls into forbidden love with Sonny, chaos and hilarity ensue. Blending Greek mythology, 80’s pop culture, and campy humor, Xanadu is a fun, self-aware celebration of art, inspiration, love, and roller skates!
