Question: What
do you get when you take Broadway’s leading
satirist Douglas Carter Beane, Pop-musical
masterminds Jeff Lynne and John Farrar,
and Broadway’s most exciting new Tony-Award
winning creative team led by Director Christopher
Ashley…
Answer: A life-altering
new musical comedy and you're invited -
Xanadu delivers upon the legacy of the American musical comedy in perfect pitch, as audiences travel back to 1980 California with Kira, a young muse from Mount Olympus, whose quest to inspire a struggling artist to achieve his dream of building the world’s first roller disco is complicated by the prospect of forbidden love with a mortal. A romantic reimagining of the 1980 Olivia Newton John Universal movie-musical that became a cult classic, this magically hilarious, musical love story about the adventures we take to create heaven on earth will blow your mind. Relive great memories. Create new ones. Lace up your skates… and come to a place where Broadway never dared to go.
Xanadu’s legendary score includes the hits 'Xanadu,'
'All Over the World,' 'Have You Never Been
Mellow?', 'Magic' (You Have to Believe)
and 'I'm Alive.' Creators
