The Lightning Thief (Ages 13-19)

Percy Jackson is about to discover that being a half-blood is more dangerous than he ever imagined. Based on the best-selling novel by Rick Riordan and adapted into a thrilling rock musical, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical follows Percy and his friends on a quest to recover Zeus’s stolen lightning bolt and prevent an all-out war among the gods.

Filled with electrifying songs, humor, and heart, this high-energy adventure celebrates friendship, courage, and finding your own place in the world—even when it feels like the odds (and the monsters) are against you. Perfect for fans of mythology, action, and rock ’n’ roll theatre!
