Olympus: A Greek Rock Musical

OLYMPUS is a laugh-out-loud rock musical where ancient myths meet modern mischief! The Greek gods, tired of their immortal routines, spark a competition to meddle with mortals and prove who’s the greatest Greek god of all time. When a group of modern-day cousins set off on a hike to “Olympus Overlook,” they have no idea they’re about to be tested by ancient deities. With catchy songs, heartfelt moments, and plenty of laughs, Olympus is a mythic adventure about family, connection, and discovering that the real view from the top is the one you share together.

Featuring a cast of 27, ages 7-12 years old.

Directed by Ali Mahon Paige and Katie Meuse
Music Directed by Emily Northridge

OLYMPUS: THE GREEK ROCK MUSICAL is presented through special
arrangement with Beat by Beat Press (bbbpress.com)
