Xanadu

Book by Douglas Carter Beane
Music & Lyrics by Jeff Lynne & John Farrar
Based on the Universal Studios Film Screenplay by Richard Danus & Marc Rubel
Performed August 2-11, 2012 | Riverview High School – Riverview, FL

XANADU follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California in 1980 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!) But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation and chaos abounds.
This hilarious, roller skating adventure (based on the Universal Pictures cult classic starring Olivia Newton John and Gene Kelly) rolls along to the original hit score which includes “Magic”, “All Over The World”, “Suddenly”, “I’m Alive”, “Evil Woman”, “Have You Never Been Mellow”, “Xanadu”, and many more.
