Kody Bringman and Becca Orts will star as Sonny and Kira, respectively, in ArtsWest Theatre‘s production of the musical Xanadu, to play June 27-July 15.
Inspired by the cult classic movie of the same name, the show follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California in 1980 on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first ROLLER DISCO.
The musical features a book by Douglas Carter Beane, as well as the original hit score composed by pop-rock legends Jeff Lynne and John Farrar, including “Magic”, “All Over The World”, “Suddenly”, “I’m Alive”, “Evil Woman”, “Have You Never Been Mellow” and the title song.
