THE LIGHTNING THIEF
Teenage Percy Jackson has just discovered that he’s the son of a Greek god. Now, he and his friends, Annabeth and Grover, must embark on an epic adventure to find Zeus’ missing lightning bolt and prevent a war among the gods—fighting mythological monsters at every turn. Join the Summer Players, talented young actors who audition for their roles after at least one year in the Theatre Conservatory, for this thrilling rock musical about embracing your destiny.
Recommendation: Ages 8+.
Join us for a joyful afternoon as we celebrate the SCR’s Theatre Conservatory with a Fun in the Sun Benefit honoring SCR Teaching Artist and Actor, Richard Soto. All proceeds from the event will benefit SCR’s Theatre Conservatory and Education Programs. Learn more at scr.org/funinthesun
