Ride the Cyclone Book, Music & Lyrics by Brooke Maxwell & Jacob Richmond

Hailed by The Washington Post as “ingeniously dark and funny,” Ride the Cyclone became a Gen Z phenomenon after “The Ballad of Jane Doe” went viral on TikTok. The one-act musical by Brooke Maxwell and Jacob Richmond follows six Canadian teenagers who find themselves in limbo after a fatal roller coaster accident. Prompted by a mysterious mechanical fortune teller, the teenagers compete for a second chance at life—discovering what defines a well-lived life in the process. Don’t miss a subversive yet stirring production from director Matthew Lindstrom and the Arts Academy Theatre Division.
