Rick Riordan’s The Lightning Thief introduced an entire generation to Greek mythology when it was first published in 2005. Since then, the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series has generated several spin-offs, a publishing imprint dedicated to introducing world mythology to young readers, two movies, a television series, and now… a musical stage show!
To celebrate the premiere of The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical at Lansing Community College, the Library will host a display of Greek mythology books during the run of the show. The display features contemporary fiction, popular non-fiction, classic Greek plays, and collections of Greek and Roman myths. All items are available for checkout on the second floor of the Technology & Learning Center.
The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical follows the adventures of Percy Jackson, Grover Underwood, and Annabeth Chase as they attempt to complete their quest and save the world from destruction. Racing across the United States in search of Zeus’s missing lightning bolt, they will face mythological monsters, magical perils, and grumpy Greek gods… all while singing a set of original songs. It is a family-friendly production, perfect for old and new fans alike.
The show runs from October 18 to October 27, 2024.
Admission is free! For more information, check the LCC Performing Arts Events Calendar.
