Bill Kenwright Ltd and Paul Taylor-Mills are presenting. 

"Lizzi was the obvious choice for me to direct this wonderful piece of theatre," Taylor-Mills said in a statement. "I spotted early on she had a creative vision like no other and her energy is captivating. I cannot wait to see her bring this epic story to life on stage."

*The Lighting Thief* is a musical that premiered Off-Broadway in 2014, and in 2017 a new version with an updated score and script premiered Off-Broadway. Since then the show has toured the United States and a theatre group at the University of Leeds gave it its UK premiere in 2022.

A blast!”
- In 2022, a Japanese version of *The Lighting Thief* premiered in Tokyo. 
- In 2015, the musical was nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical.
