ACTUP_Percy JacksonTHE LIGHTNING THIEF: The Percy Jackson Musical
Acting Up
May 31-June 2
Mason High School Theatre

Directed by Rachelle Penilla
Music directed by Jeanne Bilyeu & Savannah Slaby
Choreographed by Megan Denton & Erin Speno-Stout
Produced by Adrianna Hartmann & Emily Nickles

Official cast list (scroll down)

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. 

  • Fri, May 31 at 7pm
  • Sat, June 1 at 2pm & 7pm
