Drew Weesner
Director
"The Lightning Thief" is Mr. Weesner's 9th production to direct at PHS. A fan of Greek Mythology since he was a young child, Edith Hamilton's "Mythology" was the ONLY book assigned to him in High School that he actually read. (As for the others, Yay Cliff Notes!) Thank you to the Olympians, and especially Apollo, who, according to the cast of this show, is my godly parent!

Percy Jackson rounds out an absolute dream of a first year at Paschal for Mr. Clemmons; five shows, a thousand amazing memories, and not a moment he would change for the world! Mr. Clemmons is immensely proud of the students in this department and wants them to know they always have their own personal fan club in him. Bring on the monsters, and prepare for a terrific show!
