The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is a raucous pop and rock infused adaptation of the first novel in the popular "Percy Jackson" series written by Rick Roirdan.

After a harrowing encounter with a mythical creature on a school field trip, Percy's mother reveals a life-changing secret: Percy is a young demigod - half god and half mortal.
