The TexARTS Professional Series presents the Broadway hit musical Xanadu, based on the 1980 Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly cult classic film. This hilarious story is very simple; a muse comes to Earth and inspires an artist to open a roller disco! Seriously. Featuring a cast of lunatics and the music of the Electric Light Orchestra and Olivia Newton-John, Xanadu is one of the giddiest, silliest, sweetest stage musicals you could ever hope to see. Xanadu opens February 15 and runs through March 3, 2019 at the Kam & James Morris Theatre in Lakeway.

It's that time of year again. 'A Cool Yule', the TexARTS holiday tradition, returns for its sixth year! This swingin' cabaret will warm your heart with the songs of Andy Williams, Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Sugarland, Michael Buble, Peggy Lee and more!
