Described by the Chicago Tribune as having "one foot in Harry Potter and another in Dear Evan Hanson," The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical promises to be a thrilling adaptation of Rick Riordan's best-selling novel, and is scheduled to light up the stage of the Mahalia Jackson this weekend. The adventure tale made waves as a young adult novel, but Poseiden's son Percy and his encounters with monsters and gods comes all the more alive when jolted with a nice dose of song. Performances will be held at 3 pm on both Saturday and Sunday and at 8 pm on Saturday. $64–$226. mahaliajacksontheater.com.
