What makes a life well lived? Is it money, fame and success? Is it the lives touched along the way? Everyone can agree it’s not dying in a freak rollercoaster accident. However, that’s exactly what happens to six Canadian teenagers in the dark comedy musical, Ride the Cyclone. After members of the St. Cassian High School chamber choir perish while riding The Cyclone, they awake in limbo. Their spirit guide (a mechanical fortune teller automaton named The Amazing Karnak) invites each one to tell their life story in an effort to win the greatest prize of all, a chance to return. The play opens on Friday and continues throughout the weekend.
