I went to high school with Jorrel (The guy playing Grover), I never closely knew him but there's a bit of hometown pride for him!! So excited to see him make a name for himself :))
I remember actually screaming when he slid on stage! I was actually thinking about how he was going to enter after seeing the others, and when they tore off the curtain, I just couldn’t keep myself quiet!
I saw The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical and it was amazing! James Hayden Rodriguez ( Luke ) is so talented and did perfect with all his roles. Jorrel Javier is also an amazing singer. He did so good with his role has Grover. Chris McCarrell did amazing as his role of Percy Jackson. He was so on point with his character. And last but not least ( That I am going to write about in this comment) Kristin Stokes ( Annabeth) has a song called my grand plan and she nailed her performance at the show. I could not ask for a better cast than the cast I saw!
I wish I could see it but I'm gonna see cats on tour in Austin it's also in may I didn't know it was coming to the majestic I live in San Antonio but is it in the majestic or somewhere else there also doing legally Blonde Hamilton too
Just saw it yesterday and I gotta say id watch Percy just joke around on stage for 3 hours and be entertained, they all play their characters super well
Megan Curry they said o their twitter that it’s super expensive and the only way a professional recording will happen if fans continue to talk about the show and go see the tour so it would gain enough popularity for them to get a recording :)
Saw it Wednesday night in Chicago. I bawled my eyes out, it was so good! I got my things signed by the cast ,and spoke with them and they were all fantastic gems! Everything about the music, acting, set design, and costumes was so much fun to watch! I wrote a One Act version of this show for my high school and they all happily signed my script for me. This experience is one I won't be forgetting any time soon. For any old fans who are worried about seeing the show, I say go for it! It's worthy of the gods! Thank you cast and crew for doing my childhood justice!
someone already said this but on their Twitter,they said that it’s really really expensive to make a recording so if we support this tour right now,then they’re willing to try and make it happen!
I'm from England and I never got to see the show but listening to the soundtrack brings me back to when I first read the series... that joy and wonder and instant love of Greek mythology - I really hope this show comes to the West End one day
Saw the show last thursday in Chicago. Creative use of lighting, minimal set, and kept a pace that rarely felt too slow. Great adaptation for the fans!
I just saw this today in NYC an it was absolutely amazing, the actors were great an it really respected the book even with the boundaries it had of being on a stage. It was just a absolutely stunning musical and I could tell everyone worked very hard to make it as good as it was. 😌😊
I’m going to see it on the 15th, I’m so pumped!! Edit: IT WAS SO GOOD!!! The whole cast did a fantastic job!! Also, beware of the toilet paper if you sit in the front row.
I saw this in charlotte yesturday (It was AMAZING) and the cast still came outside to see everyone even though it was cold and rainy. I got Chris, Kristen, and Jalynn's autograph. I SAW THEM IN REAL LIFE IT BROKE ME
When I listen to the musical I wanna cry. His story is over and I keep reading the books and fanfic of it. It makes me fall in love with the series all over again and I just wanna thank Rick for creating my favorite books ever
percy jackson literally means so so much to me and i was kinda sus when i first saw this show was being made but y’all really nailed, you captured the spirit of the books so perfectly i love it 😍😭💖💕
I saw this musical last night in Chicago and you guys were so good!! The show was absolutely amazing and I definitely suggest buying tickets if you can!
god(s lol) i wish i could of seen this but trying to drive 6 hours when im a broke college student just wasn't gonna gonna happen and it kills me cause ive been a fan of the books for 10-11 years now (i started reading them when i was 9) Edit- i will pay for a professional recording of this show.
I really wish more shows were released proshot, especially since there’s so many people who don’t get to see them. It’s like, everyone’s always getting mad about bootleggers but they wouldn’t do it if production companies released proshot versions like they did with Hamilton. It just seems like such a waste that so many shows do actually get recorded professionally but never make it to the people. It really makes me wish people in this world were more generous.
AHHHHH IM SO EXCITED!!! I have been obsessed with this since I first heard about it two years ago, and I am finally going to see it in a few months, I cannot wait!!! 💙💙
Hey guys! Best place to look for updates on show related news is @ltmusical on Twitter! There the team has expressed their hope to someday film the show, but since that requires lots of interest/ money they are asking people who can go support the tour to give the show a future after it! Right now nothing is sure, but just know that the team had expressed the desire to share the show as much as possible (hence why the tour even exists)
so, i was really sad when i heard that george salazar wasn’t in the tour, because i’m going to see the touring show in new york city, because that was the closest one, but one of my friends that’s going with me just invited me to go see be more chill IN THE FRONT ROW with her!! i will go into a coma and die if there’s any understudies.
I was trying to go to the musical in chicago, but the tickets were sold out and they arent coming back to chicago! Really wanted to see it but there is always a way, and i just need to find one
I first heard the music on Google Home (listening to a google mix lol). I immediately fell in love! I can’t wait to see this! Please Apollo tell me that this will have a recording!!!

I wish there would be a professional recording after the tour! Us non-American would love it!
Yes I want to see it with Chris and Kristen at least once, but that will never happen
the original soundtrack is pretty close, so much of the original cast is still in it!
@@ashleywalton2758 it's just not the same, I listen to every single one, but it's still not the same you cant actually see anything
The original cast recording is on Spotify
@@tylerswanson2922 they mean video recording, so that all of us out of the US can see the musical
I went to high school with Jorrel (The guy playing Grover), I never closely knew him but there's a bit of hometown pride for him!! So excited to see him make a name for himself :))
He was amazing on stage!!!!
Allie S
He did so good! I can’t wait to see him get more roles :)!!
Grover is played by George Salazar ...?
@@jellydisaster355 Not anymore. Jorrel was Grover on tour and on Broadway.
Well, it's obviously already better than the movies, I'm glad this is happening.
NoelletheSlytherin too bad it’s not made it to Britain.
The what? I’m sorry but whatever you’re talking about doesn’t exist.
@@asherkahtan3914 it probably will eventually
@@mimij3870 I can't even remember what we were referring to... must be the Mist
@@louiseforfor6892 it was a joke...
Will there ever be an official recording of the full musical for those who can't see the tour so they have the opportunity to see it in full??😬😶
That’s called a bootleg, they’re illegal but you can find them around RUclips if you’re lucky.
@@kater2045 It's not always a bootleg, often shows are recorded and sold so that those who couldn't get tickets can still have the experience
Joe Trentacosta that’s an audio recording, and I believe this person was asking about a video recording
@@winter.v In the musical world it means an illegal recording of a show
Cassie's Corner dont worry i’ll record it lmao i’m gonna see it on march 30th
Maybe one of my favorite things from when I saw the show was when Chris literally slides into center stage for his entrance in the day I got expelled
I remember actually screaming when he slid on stage! I was actually thinking about how he was going to enter after seeing the others, and when they tore off the curtain, I just couldn’t keep myself quiet!
International tears
National but I can't afford to buy tickets and there are not presentations near where I live tears:(

I love this musical. I don't know why but each time I listen to it, brings out memories of that time when I fell in love with the series.
Anna Serimeneu I had grown off the series then I listened to this musical and was reminded of all the reasons I loved it!
Me too!!

You just gave my mom a new idea for a waterbottle.

Harry Potter and Percy Jackson crossover?
This proves that we can have a good adaptation of Percy Jackson that's only 2 hours, Hollywood take notes please!
Hello person from a year ago, its 2020 and rick single handedly saved it by announcing a good on screen adaptation! AHH IM SO EXCITED-
Just saw it yesterday and I gotta say id watch Percy just joke around on stage for 3 hours and be entertained, they all play their characters super well
It would be so dope if they performed this in Greece.
Zeus would probably strike them down but so worth it.
THAT END POSE THOUGH
Please upload the final recording for international fans :-)
will you be posting a professional recording after the tour so those who couldn’t go can still see it?

So happy! Ah I hope if more shows are announced that there's one closer to Vegas or LA!
