When 16 year old Percy Jackson discovers that he is the half-blood son of the Greek God, Poseidon, his life takes a dramatic turn as he is plunged into a world much bigger than he could possibly have imagined.
With newly-discovered powers he can’t control, a destiny he doesn’t want and a whole mythology textbook’s worth of mythical monsters on his tail, Percy must learn what it means to be a hero.
“A BOLT OF STAGE MAGIC. A show that whisks you to another dimension”
The future of the world hangs in the balance as Percy and his friends embark on an epic adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat.
Following a record-breaking run in London, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is coming to Cardiff. Adapted from Rick Riordan’s best-selling novel by Joe Tracz, writer of Be More Chill, and with an electrifying rock score by Rob Rokicki, it’s the perfect adventure for gods, half-bloods and mortals!
RuPaul’s Drag Race UK champion Danny Beard* joins the cast as Mr D on 23 and 24 January. With a dazzling track record, Danny is set to bring his signature charisma, powerful vocals, and stage presence to the mythical world of Camp Half-Blood as the delightfully grumpy god of wine.
