HOOD RIVER — A new teen musical theater production opens June 20 at Columbia Center for the Arts. In a partnership with Theater CamilleLynne Productions, “Ride The Cyclone” includes music and lyrics by Jacob Richmond and Brooke Maxwell and music by Mack Yasui, directed by Tay Lynne.

It’s “a darkly comedic and thrillingly theatrical” musical where six high school choir members die on a rollercoaster ride gone wrong. In the afterlife, a mechanical fortune teller offers them a chance to sing for a second shot at life. “What follows is a dazzling, heart-wrenching, and unexpectedly hilarious journey of self-discovery, fate, and the joy of making every moment count” with “an electrifying pop-rock score and a cast of unforgettable characters ... a fast, funny, and deeply moving experience that will leave you breathless,” read a press release.
