by Terrance McArthur


The Gods of Olympus! Titans! Monsters! Centaurs! Medusa! Furies! Hades! Minotaurs! Ares! Stolen Lightning! Charon! Satyrs!
It’s not a quiz for Greek Mythology 101. It’s The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical, a lively journey through a modern-day world where ancient gods (and their part-mortal children) and monsters battle for survival, a River City Theatre Company production now playing at the Reedley Opera House through October 13.

I can only assume it was because the kittens were not only very healthy AND super cute, but they were incredibly well socialized.
