About the Show

This Tony Award-nominated roller-skating musical adventure, Xanadu, is about following your dreams despite others’ limitations. Set to the hit score by pop-rock legends Jeff Lynne and John Farrar, this hilarious show, based on the cult classic movie, will inspire audiences of all ages.

Xanadu follows the magical Greek muse Kira as she descends to 1980s Venice Beach to help struggling artist Sonny create the first roller disco. When Kira falls for Sonny, her jealous sisters stir up chaos.

Xanadu is an electrifying tale full of fun and unforgettable tunes that will have you dancing in your seat and humming long after the show ends!
