AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE
In this hilarious and exhilarating story, the lives of six teenagers from a Canadian chamber choir are cut short in a freak accident aboard a rollercoaster. When they awake in limbo, a mechanical fortune teller invites each to tell a story to win a prize like no other – the chance to return to life. Bursting with witty, memorable songs and featuring some of the most compelling characters in modern musical theatre, this remarkable show makes a uniquely uplifting and deeply funny case for what makes a life worth living.
This bold, striking, and genre-busting musical started life in Canada, before becoming a hit in Chicago and New York, and then a record-breaking online phenomenon (with over half a billion views on TikTok). Now the show has its long-awaited Australian premiere in an all-new production from our Artistic Directors.
We may have single tickets available for some performances!

Ride The Cyclone will also be transferring to the fabulous Art House Wyong for a limited season from 28 June. Find out more here.
