Linfield Theatre Presents: The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical

April’s The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical features music and lyrics by Rob Rokicki and book by “Be More Chill” scribe Joe Tracz. Based on Rick Riordan’s popular novel of the same name, the musical follows 12–year–old Percy Jackson’s odyssey to keep the peace among the Greek gods and restore Zeus’ lightning bolt while discovering his own status as a demigod. “The Hollywood Reporter” says the musical provides an “excellent if irreverent introduction to Greek mythology that might persuade some kids to dig deeper.” Dr. Lindsey Mantoan will direct. Performance dates are April 24 and 25 and May 1–3 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, April 27 at 2 p.m. (Please note: there will not be a performance on April 26.) Tickets will go on sale April 9. Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
