SING YOUR HEART
OUT!
From the people who brought you the
Buffy The Vampire Slayer Sing Along, and now back by popular demand, Summer
Camp Cinema and the Cinema Arts Centre, 423 Park Avenue, Huntington,
NY, present THE XANADU SING
ALONG! A 35MM print of the original 1980 film will be back on the big
screen Wednesday, October 1st at 7:30 pm
with
Audience Participation and so much more! www.summercampcinema.com
Before it became a Tony-award nominated Broadway smash, XANADU
was one of the most notorious bombs in Hollywood
history: but what a glorious failure!
Featuring a slew of classic tunes
from Olivia Newton John and The Electric
Light Orchestra, there isn’t a moment of this
campy cinematic mess that isn’t a toe-tapping delight. So, for this
special big screen presentation of the 1980 “classic”, we are
inviting the audience to do more than have their jaws hit the floor: we are
encouraging all the Xana-fans to sing and dance along with their favorite
songs!!!
At the XANADU SING ALONG
we’re not only screening the movie, but providing the lyrics, as well as
a grab bag full of props, and a guide for audience participation with
what’s happening on screen. And yes, we the stage expect everyone to get
up in the aisles to sing and dance. Before the film there’ll be
extra special Xanadu trivia, Olivia Newton John video clips, and other
Xana-fun.
Filled with hilarious moments (often
unintentional) pouring off the screen, there is nothing about XANADU that is
not resplendently insane! 1980s icon Olivia Newton John plays Kira, a muse of
the Greek god Zeus disguised in leg warmers and roller skates. She is summoned
to Earth to inspire lonely album cover artist Sonny Malone (The Warriors star
Michael Beck) and retired big-band musician Danny McGuire (Gene Kelly!) to team
up and build a giant roller disco named Xanadu. No, really. The film is
directed with neon music-video panache by Robert Greenwald, the same guy who
now makes incendiary political documentaries about Fox News and Wal-Mart.
Produced by Clinton McClung. the creator of last
year’s smash interactive cinema hit, The Buffy The Vampire Slayer Sing Along,
this
interactive big-screen sing along XANADU screening is a cinematic celebration
that is not to be missed!
