Review

Xanadu

By David Finkle · Jul 5, 2007 · New York City

The deservedly maligned 1980 movie musical has been transformed into a confection that will leave Greek muses and audience members alike smiling.

I absolutely wont forget this one! I laughed the whole way through. Very entertaining. It brings you back to the 80s and my childhood of watching the movie over & over again. I still watch the movie and have it on my iPOD. LOL

A Circus on Rollerskates
When you enter a theater and find some of the audience on the stage and a purple wigged girl selling water in an Austrailian accent, you know this is a different kind of show. In fact, it could almost be mistaken for a circus. Though the acting was very good, especially that of Tony Roberts and the two evil sisters, the plot and music was too silly to enjoy. The musicals only redeeming quality was a tap dance scene halfway through. My recommendation: skate away from this one!
