‘The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical’ to be Presented at SFCC

The SFCC Theatre Arts program will present their last mainstage production of the 2023-2024 Theatre Arts Season with "The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical."

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. Directed by Kristen Henning.

"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 in 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." -Concord Theatricals
