THE LIGHTNING THIEF
THE PERCY JACKSON MUSICAL
Book by JOE TRACZ, Music & Lyrics by ROB ROKICKI
Adapted from the book ‘The Lightning Thief’ by RICK RIORDAN
When 16 year old Percy Jackson discovers that he is the half-blood son of the Greek God, Poseidon, his life takes a dramatic turn as he is plunged into a world much bigger than he could possibly have imagined.
With newly-discovered powers he can’t control, a destiny he doesn’t want and a whole mythology textbook’s worth of mythical monsters on his tail, Percy must learn what it means to be a hero.
The future of the world hangs in the balance as Percy and his friends embark on an epic adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat.
Following a record-breaking run in London, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is coming to Darlington. Adapted from Rick Riordan’s best-selling novel by Joe Tracz, writer of Be More Chill, and with an electrifying rock score by Rob Rokicki, it’s the perfect adventure for gods, half-bloods and mortals!
