Embark on an unforgettable journey with Ride the Cyclone, a darkly humorous and deeply poignant musical that follows the lives of six teen chamber choir singers tragically cut short by a roller coaster accident. Transported to the afterlife's dilapidated carnival, they encounter The Amazing Karnak, a mechanical fortune teller who offers them a chance to return to life through storytelling. As they compete for this rare opportunity, the students sing and dance their way through a series of touching and hilarious performances, revealing their deepest hopes and fears. Part comedy, part tragedy, and wholly enchanting, "Ride the Cyclone" is a twisted and exhilarating exploration of the human experience that will leave you laughing, crying, and ultimately feeling grateful for the gift of life itself.

You'll love Ride the Cyclone if you enjoy: quirky musical comedies like "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and "Little Shop of Horrors," unconventional musicals such as "Heathers: The Musical" and "Urinetown," dark humor found in films like "Beetlejuice" and "The Addams Family."
Running Time: 90 minutes - no intermission.
