Myth meets present

At the center is Percy, a teenager who only realizes late that his origins are anything but ordinary. From the seemingly everyday youth drama evolves a fast-paced fantasy piece with divine family conflict, a dangerous mission, and the question of how to assert oneself in a world full of expectations. The dramaturgy of the musical works with clear conflicts, rapid scene changes, and a sound that vibrates between departure and unrest. The JTB refers to the global impact of the source material, the music by Rob Rokicki, and the book by Joe Tracz.

Rock score, character strength, and captivating movement

The direction by Bernard Niemeyer, musical direction by Ekaterina Klewitz, set design, costumes, and choreography promise a form-conscious ensemble performance that transforms a well-known material into more than just a retelling, creating a theatrical atmosphere with concert energy. Especially for young audiences, a lively approach to ancient material arises here: Greek mythology appears not as a distant museum but as an electrified present. The JTB highlights the humorous, rebellious, and emotional tone of the novel and describes the production as a grand musical that can be seen for the first time on this stage in Bonn.
