The Spartanburg Youth Theatre’s Actor's Studio camp presents Xanadu Jr.
Xanadu JR. follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California, on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first Roller Disco. (Hey, it's 1980!) But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation, and chaos abounds.
SYT's Actor's Studio camps are for rising 10th-12th graders. These camps teach advanced theatre techniques and provide essential training for young actors interested in pursuing a professional theatre career. Actors in this camp rehearse and produce a full-length musical in just 3 weeks.
