The Fort Walton Beach High School Theatre Department will present “The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical” Feb. 15-18.

Based on the popular Percy Jackson book series by Rick Riordan, the musical follows 12-year-old Percy Jackson as he discovers he is a demigod — half human, half Greek god — and accused of stealing Zeus’ lightning bolt.
To prevent a war between the gods, Percy embarks on a quest to find the missing bolt.

The FWBHS production will take place at the school’s auditorium at 400 Hollywood Blvd. SE. Showtimes are 7 p.m. Feb. 15-17 and 2 p.m. Feb. 18.

Directed by the school’s theatre department, the musical incorporates catchy songs and energetic choreography to bring Percy’s adventure to life on stage.

FWBHS’ Thespian Troupe 4967 recently earned a superior rating at the district competition for its one-act production. The troupe will represent its district at the 2024 Florida State Thespian Festival in March after judges selected the FWBHS production for top honors in all categories.

Nearly 8,000 students from across Florida will participate in the weeklong state festival.

Single tickets for “The Lightning Thief” are $18 and can be purchased online by clicking here.
