The Lightning Thief – information evening

Are you in school year 7 or above and love to sing, act, dance and perform?

Want to be part of the wildest, most electrifying youth theatre adventure of the year?

The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical.

To be performed in Beccles Public Hall on the 19th – 21st March 2026

Rising Stars is looking for enthusiastic and talented singers, dancers and actors (especially boys!) to take on gods & monsters in this rock-and-roll musical.

Percy Jackson was just a regular kid – until he discovered he’s a demigod! Now he’s on an epic quest to find Zeus’s stolen lightning bolt, clear his name, and stop a war between the gods. Along with his friends Annabeth and Grover, Percy battles monsters, dodges traps, and finds the hero inside himself.

Every hero has to start somewhere… and your journey begins here!
