SoLuna Studio will be producing the hit musical-comedy on roller skates XANADU as a part of their professional main stage season, with performances running May 2nd through 25th. Performances will be held on Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 3pm. Tickets for this family-friendly show are $10 for children ages 10 and under, $15 for students and seniors, and $20 for adults. Sunday performances will have a children's hour after the show, featuring a meet-and-greet with the Muses!

XANADU is a hilarious, roller skating, musical-comedy adventure about following your dreams despite the limitations others set for you! Featuring the original hit score composed by pop-rock legends Jeff Lynne and John Farrar, including, "Magic", "All Over The World", "Suddenly", "I'm Alive", "Evil Woman", "Have You Never Been Mellow" and "Xanadu", to name a few, XANADU is based on the Universal Pictures' cult classic movie of the same title, which starred Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly. The musical opened on Broadway in 2007 and ran for over 500 performances. It earned an Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical and a Drama Desk Award for Best Book. It was also nominated for Tony Awards for Best Musical and Best Book.

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! But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation and chaos abounds.

It's hilarity on wheels for adults, children and anyone who has ever wanted to feel inspired, a moving, electrifying tale of endless fun that will keep you in stitches, while the original, legendary chart-topping tunes lift you out of your seat. You'll want to keep the music in your head, and XANADU in your heart, forever.
