Description:

American Heritage School’s Broward Campus upper school students will perform “Xanadu JR.” at the Main Stage Theater on Thursday, Nov. 5, at 7 p.m. and Friday, Nov. 6, at 7 p.m.
“Xanadu JR.” is inspired by the Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical and the Universal Pictures’ cult classic movie that starred Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly. “Xanadu JR.” is a moving, electrifying tale of endless fun that will keep audiences in stitches while the original, legendary chart-topping tunes lift them out of their seats.
“Xanadu JR.” follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California, on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first Roller Disco. (Hey, it’s 1980!) But when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation, and chaos abounds.
“Xanadu JR.” is presented through a special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
