As the half-blood son of a Greek god, Percy Jackson has newly-discovered powers he can’t control, a destiny he doesn’t want, and a mythology textbook’s worth of monsters on his trail. When Zeus’s master lightning bolt is stolen and Percy becomes the prime suspect, he has to find and return the bolt to prove his innocence and prevent a war between the gods. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the thief. He must travel to the Underworld and back; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and come to terms with the father who abandoned him. Adapted from the best-selling book The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan and featuring a thrilling original rock score, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is an action-packed mythical adventure “worthy of the gods” (Time Out New York). If you like that kind of books, you will love the kids’ book collection in aldi weekly ad.
Audiences will park in the main field of Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm and the show will be held in the Event Field directly behind the Visitor’s Center. Our wonderful team of volunteer ushers will be there to guide you the whole way!
Seating is first come, first served. Bring your own chair or blanket.
“Doors” open at 5:45pm
