Xanadu at Signature Theatre

Book by Douglas Carter Beane
Music & Lyrics by Jeff Lynne and John Farrar
Based on the 1980 Universal Pictures Film
Directed & Choreographed by Matthew Gardiner

The award-winning musical comedy! It is 1980 in Venice, California. Legwarmers are in and roller skates are way sexy. Kira, one of seven quirky Greek muses, is sworn to three things: to inspire mortals, never reveal her identity and never, ever fall in love. When she emboldens struggling artist Sonny to create the first roller disco, Kira feels the artistic pull of her own.

Grab your glowsticks and legwarmers as Signature turns the MAX Theatre into one big disco-heaven ball with the zany, roller skating cult classic. “Heaven on wheels…outlandishly enjoyable.” – The New York Times.
