An innovative, viral Broadway musical that’s a wild ride!

“Ride the Cyclone” starts July 16

RIDE THE CYCLONE

When a freak roller-coaster accident claims the lives of a choir group on a field trip, the teens end up in a bizarre purgatory. A mechanical fortune teller tells them that only one of them can be brought back to life. To win the ultimate prize, they must prove who deserves it the most…by telling their story through song. Full of edgy comedy and musical styles ranging from dance pop to vaudeville, this Off-Broadway musical has also gone viral on TikTok. Runs July 16-August 23.
