Percy Jackson has 10 days to find Zeus’s stolen lightning bolt and bring peace to the warring gods of modern-day Mount Olympus. To succeed in his quest, Percy and his Camp Half-Blood sidekicks will have to do more than seize the true thief. He must come to terms with the father who abandoned him, solve the riddle of the Oracle and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.
Adapted from the first book in Rick Riordan’s best-selling fantasy series, “The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical” springs to life with dazzling special effects and a riveting pop-rock score, capturing the imaginations of children and adults alike.

The Neon Sign Lighting event, originally scheduled for June 1, has been rescheduled to June 22. The event will now take place during the closing weekend of “The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical.” The ceremony has been moved from intermission to after the performance to allow for maximum effect at dusk on the longest day of the year.
Da Vinci Sign Systems Inc. is restoring the Fox’s historic neon sign to its original 1946 color palette and condition. During this process, we discovered an unexpected original color, which requires additional time to incorporate. Be sure to stick around after the show for the unveiling of this exciting discovery!
Because of the change in the lighting ceremony, you can exchange your tickets for June 22 if you would like to attend the performance and the lighting ceremony on the same day. If you would like to keep your tickets for opening night on June 1 and join us on the 22nd after the show for the lighting of the sign, we'll be happy to see you either way!
If you wish to exchange your tickets, please email Maddie Morgan at mmorgan1@auroragov.org.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
