Darkly funny, wildly imaginative, and surprisingly heartfelt, Ride the Cyclone is the viral musical phenomenon that has taken the world by storm.

In this hilarious and exhilarating story, the lives of six teenagers of the St. Cassian Chamber Choir are changed forever after they board a doomed rollercoaster ride.

Thrown into the abyss, they awake to find an ominous mechanical fortune teller that offers them the chance to compete for the prize … to return home in one piece.

Now confronted with their darkest desires, shameful secrets and each other, this “supremely witty … and just plain delightful” (New York Times) musical makes a uniquely uplifting and outrageous case for what makes a life worth living.
