Loras Players Present “The Lightning Thief”

The Loras Players, the theatre production arm of Loras College’s School of Humanities & Education, present The Lightning Thief, an adventure comedy by Joe Tracz with book and lyrics by Rob Rockicki, adapted from the book by Rick Riordan Thursday–Saturday, November 21–23 at 7:30 PM.

This musical adaptation of Rick Riordan’s bestselling book follows Percy Jackson. When Percy discovers he’s a demigod, he and his friends embark on an epic journey to find Zeus’ missing lightning bolt and prevent a war among the gods.

Established in 1910, the Loras Players are the oldest, continuously operating theatre troupe west of the Mississippi River. Currently in its 115th season, students of all majors get hands-on, practical experience in this multi-disciplinary extracurricular program.

The Lightning Thief runs Thursday–Saturday, November 21–23 at 7:30 PM in St. Joseph Auditorium, Hoffmann Hall on the Loras College campus. General admission is $10 for adults and $5 for under-18; Loras-affiliated admission is a $5-10 suggested donation.
