The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical

When teenager Percy Jackson discovers he’s a demigod, he and his friends embark on an epic journey in search of Zeus’ stolen lightning bolt to prevent a war among the gods. Myths and monsters take the stage in a hilarious and spectacular rock show not to be missed! Much like the Percy Jackson & the Olympians book series by Rick Riordan, this rock musical and its songs have earned a cult following of their own. The show’s Off-Broadway debut (2014) earned critical praise and Drama Desk Award nominations, including Best Musical, before moving on to national tours and a brief Broadway run. Its themes of kids dealing with absentee parents, academic struggles, social shunning, and facing the “monsters” of the real world all hit home in a modern take on ancient Greek myths.
