"The audience goes crazy at the show!
They're so into it. I don't know what it is with me. First Elvis and now this! People come and call themselves "Fanadus." I love it. "
--- From Cheyenne's interview on Broadway.com
"Anybody that goes to the theater, I think we’re all misfits, so we ended up on stage or in the audience.” --- Patti LuPone.

Dang! I have a thing tomorrow afternoon, but I will do what I can to make it. I hope there's lots of pics tomorrow anyway, for those of us who won't be likely to make it.
Jay, will you be premiering your costume?
Testing1232, the hardest thing in the world is not buying tickets. Part of me wants one day a week to be Xanadu day...
I'm thinking XanaTuesdays!

You GOTTA wear the Kira outfit!!! You know if you wear that outfit, there will be people taking your pictures as well. Just imagine being on all the Broadway sites and maybe even the papers the next day.
Who knows, Olivia might see you and HAVE to get a picture with you...

No- its singingbackup ....he coined the word "fANADU" for f(ans of X)ANADU..
This was the original thread as to how the name got started:
https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.cfm?thread=939399&id=3111930&boardname=bway
As to how the Production teams pick up the name fANADU- who knows? a most plausible explanation is they read these threads.. There was an article oh HX magazine about Douglas Carter Beane (librettist) who admitted that he is obssesed reading these threads.. I will try to find that article & post it here later -
or Craig might just told the XANADU people ?

I will be there, but prolly NOT in 80's garb. My 80's stuff is all faded jeans and members-only jackets and otherwise heavy stuff, and it's supposed to be 90 degrees, so no thanx.
I'm thinking just wear my black Xanadu cap.
You're hurt and you're scared because you doubt your own artistic ability.
