COSTA MESA, CA-It's no secret that the 1980 Olivia Newton-John/Gene Kelly film Xanadu was such a horrendously-received crap-o-rama that it has since transcended above it's own flaws to become a surprise cult classic that people actually adore, in its own very unique way. With that in mind, the Broadway musical-that uses that vapid movie as its source material-puts that very awfulness center-stage... parodies the heck out of it, points out its cheesiness blatantly, and even surprisingly-and lovingly-pays tribute to it in a very respectful way... Well, at least, respectful in the way the best satires can. XANADU, Broadway's multiple Tony® Award-nominated musical that launched its first national tour at the Orange County Performing Arts Center, is one funny, self-aware, hilarious musical comedy that takes absolute pleasure in its own campy delights. The uproariously bright show skates at the Center (the musical's only Southern California tour stop) until December 27.

Before the official launch of the national tour of XANADU arrives at the Orange County Performing Arts Center for a two week run from December 15 through 27, ELIZABETH STANLEY, who stars as Kira (yes, the role Olivia Newton-John played in the movie), sits down with BroadwayWorld correspondent Michael Lawrence Quintos to talk about the danger of performing on skates, her Broadway debut in Company, and what it takes to step into a feel-good musical.
