Gather round the campfire! The Amarillo Little Theatre Academy and Sparkman Orthodontics took us all on a “Killer Quest” this summer with The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical.
It’s summer-time at Camp-Halfblood and it’s totally your typical summer camp…or is it? Based on the modern classic Young Adult novel, this electric tale follows Percy Jackson as he discovers that he is the son of one of the Greek gods. When Zeus’s master lightning bolt is stolen and Percy becomes the prime suspect, he has to find and return the bolt to prove his innocence and prevent a war between the gods.
The Lightning Thief featured 25 talented Academy students and was directed and choreographed by Academy Director Harrison Stringer with Music Direction by Brandon Bellar. Academy alums Zoë Parrish and Maddox Nite served as Assistant Director and Production Assistant, respectively, and Academy Student Cameron Parrack served as Assistant Music Director. This array of iconic characters was brought to life by Costume Coordinator Hunter Lee and the Scenic Design by Tana Roberson making you feel like you were back at your favorite summer camp.
