Musical 'Xanadu' Is Hilton Head Summer Treat!

The Broadway smash hit Xanadu roller-skated its way into the hearts of theater critics and audiences alike.  The show will be presented by the Arts Center of Coastal Carolina in Hilton Head from June 17 through July 26. A hilariously reinvented send-up of the 80s film, this irreverent musical adventure, about following your dreams, spins along to the addictive original hit film score of chart-topping tunes from Electric Light Orchestra and Olivia Newton John including “Magic,” “All Over the World,” “Suddenly,” “I’m Alive,” “Evil Woman,” “Strange Magic,” “Have You Never Been Mellow,” and “Xanadu,” to name a few. Xanadu follows the beautiful Greek muse Kira as she visits Venice Beach, CA to coax an uninspired artist, Sonny, to build the first roller disco! When she accidentally falls in love with him, much to her jealous sister-muses' dismay, chaos and fun abound, skate wheels turn and disco balls twirl. This delightful fun-for-the-whole-family show earned an Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical and was nominated for Tony Awards for Best Musical and Best Book.  Subscribers - be sure to call the Box Office and book your seats for this summer smash hit! Tickets for preview performances June 17-18 are $35 for adults and $25 for children 4-15; Regular tickets June 19-July 26 are $45 for adults and $31 for children.
