Our collection includes an assortment of backdrop designs that can be used for scenes in the musical, including pieces that feature Venice Beach; the place where Clio, a Greek goddess of inspiration, travels to in order to inspire a struggling artist named Sonny. Other backdrops include those depicting brick and stucco walls, day skies, foliage silhouettes, and Greek-style colonnades, which you can use to represent Clios home upon the heights of Mt. Olympus.

Xanadu features the music and lyrics of Jeff Lynn and John Farrar, as well as a book by Douglas Carter Beane. It premiered on Broadway in 2007 and ran for over 500 performances. A U.S. tour was also launched in 2008, and foreign productions were also staged in South Korea, the Philippines, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

Set in the 1980s, Xanadu follows the story of Clio, one of the muses of Mt. Olympus and a daughter of the god Zeus. She descends from the sacred mountain and travels to Venice Beach, California, to go on a quest to inspire Sonny Malone, an artist who cant seem to get his act together.

Despite his chronic underachievement, Sonny has a big heart, and with the help of Clios magic, he soon discovers his own creativity. He and Clio (disguised as Kira) work together to realize the greatest artistic achievement of the day: the worlds first roller disco. Help comes in the form of Clios good sister muses and a real estate mogul named Danny Maguire. However, a few of her other sister muses are jealous of Clio, and they will do everything they can to derail the plan!
