On Stage: "XANADU" (a roller skating musical adventure!)

Texas Tech University’s School of Theatre & Dance, housed within the J.T. & Margaret Talkington College of Visual and Performing Arts, presents XANADU, April 17-21. 

 

This Tony Award-nominated, hilarious, roller skating, musical adventure follows the journey of a magical Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mount 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 – a 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. Will Kira discover the power of her own creativity to reveal the secret of Xanadu?
