It’s time to believe in magic with XANADU JR!

It’s 1980 and the magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, as he strives to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time - the first roller disco! But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation and chaos abounds.

This hilarious, roller skating, musical adventure about following your dreams, rolls along with a hit score composed by pop-rock legends Jeff Lynne and John Farrar which has been adapted for the MTI Broadway Junior Collection.

With songs including, "Magic", "All Over The World", "Suddenly", "I'm Alive", "Evil Woman" and "Xanadu", to name a few, this JR. title still has all the fun and excitement of the original production.

It's hilarity on wheels for children, adults and anyone who has ever wanted to feel inspired. You'll want to keep the music in your head, and XANADU JR. in your heart, forever.
