ANNOUNCING AUDITIONS at The Black Box Theatre at Edmonds College: Xanadu by Douglas Carter Beane, Jeff Lynne, and John Farrar Directed by Rachel Klem In Greek legend, the Muses inspire artists of the mortal world. So when Clio, Muse of History, spies down-on-his-luck artist Sonny, she vows to help him create a 1980s artistic masterpiece: a roller disco. Clio’s plan is thwarted by her evil sisters who trick her into falling in love with Sonny, an unforgivable crime for Muses. How will Zeus punish the well-meaning couple? Based on the film of the same name, Xanadu puts a playful twist on Greek mythos, pairing it with disco fever and the outrageous style of the 1980s. With music by the Electric Light Orchestra and an unabashedly silly script, Xanadu is a tongue-and-cheek celebration of the absurdity of art and the joy of being human.
