A million lights were dancing at CAST’s XANADU

Xanadu saw the return of LIVE MUSIC and DANCING to the CAST Musical and audiences went wild for the unique show’s gentle blend of reverence and satire. There was laughter, and there were tears - sometimes in the same scene but everyone had a great time. Congrats to this wildly talented CAST adn CREW because what you have made is real - we are in Xanadu!
