Congratulations to the Kerry Butler and the cast of Xanadu! Four Tony Award nominations including Best Musical and Best Leading Actress in a Musical!

I LOVE CHEYENNE SO SO SO MUCH...! AAAHHHH! His vocals are just absolute pure gold, and he is just so stunningly beautiful. He amazes me.

Having seen Kerry Butler in Xanadu and also Hairspray and shop Little Shop of Horrors, she can sing wonderfully. But, please remember the she is working here as a comedic actress! I have no doubt the she will find her own "Bernadette Peters" role in the future!

Few people were a fan of the movie, but the soundtrack was a huge success spawning radio play for at least five of the songs. The play takes only the basic outline of the story and then pumps it up into a great staqge show.

OMG, my boyfriend took me for Valentine's Day. It was so good. The songs in the middle of the show are not that memorable, but the opening and the end are so feel good, you just want to dance. And the comedic leads were just that.....they stole the show!

they didn't lipsync, the sound was unsynchronized to the video, it was like that during the showing of the parade as well, they've done that with every live performance now since the Janet Jackson incident at the Super Bowl

That man has an amazing everything!!!

God he is so fucking beautiful.

I can't get enough of that guy in the shorts. Yummmmy!

Just saw the show on Broadway. It was so good. I can't wait to see it again.

I WANT THAT DRESS!!!

I saw Kerry live on Broadway in Little Shop. She was amazing. It was the last show I wanted to see, but it was worth the money.

They still did a damn good job, it is probably harder for them to lipsync.

shorts can never be short...look just fine to me!

I'm very excited about Max von Essen as Sonny! I saw DOTV twice and he was just great in it.

...i wish they were singing live.

See the show before you form an opinion! I just saw it and I hadn't had so much fun at a broadway show in a long time. REALLY good show!

That song is "All Over The World" original performed by ELO from the Xanadu film soundtrack. It got a lot of radio play back in 1980.

I would love to see this. i wish it would go on tour.

Thanks for posting that video. Didn't know they were doing it, so i missed it on TV. =)

It's September 2 as I make this entry, so that means that the 2008 edition is just around the corner. I am looking forward to it.

kerry seems like she's got a celine dion and olivia newton john vocal mix! It works great for the show - she's an amazing performer!

2:32 what the hell was that

their last show is november 6th at 4 o'clock

Rock those short shorts, Cheyenne!

I can't wait to see it in Chicago in January. Max Von Essen is in it as Sonny, and I'm excited about that because I wanted to see him in "Dance of the Vampires" until some people screwed with the story and it failed. I wish I saw it with Curtis Holbrook as Sonny...he's so cute!!!

when ur dancing the cold is very refreshing

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so good.

I love the accent

Less than 9 months until the 2008 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. 3-1-08

Love it. George Vreeland Hill

3:26, LOVE IT!

Pay attention to the video at the beginning. The hosts here explain the plot.

I LOVE HIM TOO~!!!!!!! Le Sigh........

I couldn't tell if she was purposely forgetting the lyrics / giving the crazy eye / doing that freaky "for you." I have to see this play just to laugh the whole way through it.

Everything was on purpose... it's totally tongue -in-cheek, except the lyrics part (which I didn't notice). I've seen the show twice and will see it again happily.

The show close this sunday. They moved it up.

ken nelson is my cousinnn so happy this video is here

The last show is Oct. 12 :P

the 80's came back with a vengeance, eek. XD At least The Little Mermaid isn't the only show on Broadway with roller skates or Heelies

This is just comical.

@jerrybutts30 She was the original Penny.

To be honest, I'm hoping to miraculously get money to go to Germany and see that show as well...although I hope it doesn't disappear before I get the fundage....

ive just booked tickets for july hope is good! got a good deal-60 a ticket.

In July, Cheyenne will be out doing another show and Curtis Holbrook will be replacing him. Not sure how he'll fill out the shorts..but enjoy!!

@kyleorlando which hairspray and who did she play

Was that James Gandolfini clapping at the end?

No, that's just the tone of her voice.

I think that was James Gandolfini haha (aka. Tony Soprano)

Actually, it is a period piece set in 1980, so the shorts are exactly the right length. And besides, there is a line in the show about it being children's theatre to gay guys. When I saw it, no straight guys stormed out in ahuff because there was a hot guy on stage in short-shorts.

Jeff Lynne is the unsung hero...

That guy would be Cheyenne Jackson.

She's got a sweet voice! what is her name?

She would be a good Elle Woods.

@aokay36 Long Live Olivia Newton-John!!!!

I know..Cheyenne Jackson in cutoff shorts, wiggling his hips :p *sigh*

A Movie Dearest blog featured video. See my profile for the link and playlists!

@LaughXLiveXLove13 If she's trying to sound like Olivia, why isn't he trying harder to sound like Jeff Lynne? If one singer is going to give a mimetic performance, shouldn't they all? I haven't seen the show, nor do I know much about the nuance and subtlety of Broadway parodies. All I know is what I've seen online; it looks like a pretty good show.

It's a really cute story. Keira, the muse, comes to Earth as an Aussie rollergirl, but she's never been human before so she's not very good at the accent.

yeah but few can really sound like Olivia

This is ALMOST as bad as the house called "Xanadu" that used to be in Kissimme in Florida (on the 192)

ijust say the play and it rocks ! I heard the oringanl was very bad

Cheyenne is only leaving for a month top do Damn Yankees.

i actually don't think Cheyenne has a very cute face, but holy crap those are some amazing thighs! He could probably kill someone with those quads.

kerry is an amazing singer but this play does not do her justice. she doesn't sound like herself & her voice is normally extremely BEAUTIFUL. she just sounds okay here.

Looks like a great musical. Don't like the fact the guy's shirt is pink; but whatever floats his boat.

There's is absolutely NOTHING wrong with this performance. The only problem is that this show does not work out of context. It's a spoof!

The movie sucked, but this looks great. I love the music

Is this some kind of sick joke?

OK that's a funny musical...but...i still prefer the movie...those cheesy 80's!

I can't understand a word she's saying. Has she even heard the word DICTION!?

Pretty darn bad....

MMM i dont know i want to see this musical im satraight, and i dont think people should think of a this as for women or gays only not for straight men. Yet seeing our society kind of stereotypical i dont blame the guys they must be affraid of judgement or something. No?

Sorry, I could do better. I'm not being conceited either -- her voice sounds weird and NOTHING like the original movie. WTF. I'm just sad. Another musical messed up like that? Are they lipsynching????
