However, the story takes a turn when Kira falls in love with Sonny. So, what’s the fuss about it? Well, Kira is a magical angel from heaven while Sonny is a mortal! The story gets chaotic when Kira’s envious sisters make the most of this situation.

Kerry Butler as Kira in this 90-minute Broadway production sets the audiences’ hearts soaring with her beautiful performance. The music is taken from the movie version of “Xanadu” that starred Gene Kelly and Olivia Newton-John. It includes the top 20 Billboard hits like ‘Magic’, ‘Xanadu’, ‘I’m alive’, and ‘Party All Over the World’.

The musical has a fantastic comedy. Of course, it has to be! With Broadway’s topmost satirist Douglas Carter Beane, Broadway’s favorite pop music composers John Farrar and Jeff Lynne, and one of the most creative directors Christopher Ashley coming together to form one of the most thrilling teams of Broadway, nothing less than “Xanadu” can be expected!

John and Jeff’s smashing numbers like “Suddenly”, “Evil Woman”, “All Over The World”, “Magic”, “Have You Never Been Mellow”, “I’m Alive”, “XANADU”, and others sends pulsating energy across the theatre.

“Xanadu” is a complete family entertainer with an inspiring story about chasing your dreams without caring about your inhibitions and restrictions imposed on you. It’s about listening to your heart and showcasing your talent to the world. Once you prove that you have it in you to make it big, the world follows you and you get the well-deserved applause.

So, come with your mom, dad, granny, girlfriend, boyfriend, buddy, or colleagues, or just alone, and watch this lively musical love story. Get the flavor of 1980 culture, along with music that penetrates deep into your heart. There is endless enjoyment and lots of motivation, as you watch the magical Kira help Sonny’s dreams come to life. Join Sonny in making his idea of Roller Disco turn into reality. Perhaps you might get a surge of inspiration to follow your own dreams as well. You might even get a mind blowing idea and the guts to implement it.

All this can happen if you watch “Xanadu”. However, there’s a little problem. The tickets to this show might not be available as easily as you think. Tickets are being sold like hot cakes. The line seems to be endless at the box office. If you do not want to test your patience, the best way is to go online and book your tickets. You can even get it home delivered. Another way is to dial the number of ticketing services. If lady luck is by your side, you might even get tickets for the front row!

So, get ready to be swept off your feet by the magical beauty, Kira and the ambitious dreamer, Sonny.

The ETC offers a fantastic view from every seat (about 200 or so by my guestimations), and also has surprisingly good acoustics for that space. What makes the venue even better is the building itself…it is a gem and has all sorts of architectural details for you to enjoy (if you’re in to that sort of thing).

As for the show we saw ‘Rabbit Hole’ which is the winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Best New Play and a Tony Award-winning drama. The show was great and the seats were full…at the end the audience gave a standing ovation for the great performance. The ETC is a great theatre that has a strong history and is nationally known.

I highly recommend a visit to the ETC. It is a good alternative to the movies and the show lets out with plenty of time to go out drinking afterwards. The ETC offers student discounts, as well as, senior discounts. You can now also buy tickets online…and if you want to see ‘Rabbit Hole’ then you better hurry because its time runs up this Sunday.
