[NEohioPAL] Kennelly review The Lightning Thief

[Laura Kennelly]

Imagine your surprise if you learned your father is a Greek god. That
shocking discovery means, as Percy Jackson discovers, he is a demi-god.

*The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical *begins with that premise
and romps merrily through the resulting action when Percy goes to a summer
camp for teens. There, our hero discovers not only who he is, but also who
his classmates and teachers are. On top of all that, he is assigned a quest
(something all heroes must have). He must find Zeus’ stolen lightning bolt
before all-out war descends upon the lesser gods and demi-gods.

The show is a real feast for fantasy lovers (hand raised here). The Helen’s
stadium seating suggests classic Greek theatre structures — albeit on a
much smaller scale.
