About Xanadu
A Greek muse inspires love, laughter, and the world's first roller disco in this 1980s glitter explosion.
Xanadu follows the journey of Clio, a magical Greek muse who descends from the heavens of Mount 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! (Hey, it's 1980!) But, when Clio falls in love with this mere mortal – which is forbidden by Zeus – her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation, and chaos abounds.
