  • At 8:17 PM, the Saint Cassian High School Chamber Choir will board the Cyclone roller coaster. At 8:19, the front axle will break, sending them to their tragic demise. Trapped in fantastical carnival-like purgatory, the recently deceased teens discover a mechanical fortune teller, who invites them to tell their stories of life interrupted, with the promise of a prize like no other. Welcome to the West Coast premiere of Ride the Cyclone, a wildly original new musical. Part comedy, part tragedy and completely unexpected, this wonderfully weird story is at every turn satirical, macabre, creepy, campy and hilarious.
    Ride the Cyclone plays March 10 - May 20, 2018 at ACT Theatre

    1:40 It's just a little thing, but I actually really liked the detail of Mischa not smiling at this line originally, because Uranium isn't his home town and all. I do like that they still found a spot for him and Noel to dance here, even if it feels less natural than in Fall Fair Suite

      Well in the first iteration the fall fair suite, Ricky does not sing at all as well as other versions, so maybe this was one of the few versions that Ricky does sing. Mind you, this was before the characterisation of Ricky was changed to being mute as a result of his dad being killed by a pet snake rather than being unable to speak due to a oontengital deficit disorder that made him mute.

      ​​​@@moonwalkerangel7008Ricky actually sings in the 2015 Chicago version of Fall Fair Suite, but in the most popular iteration of the show (2016 Off-Broadway production), he doesn't, as you mentioned already!
      And the new characterization thankfully is the alternate script that can be used if an able-bodied actor is playing Ricky. It is not the final/end-all-be-all.

      In my opinion, I definitely prefer Fall Fair Suite a ton, but there are ups and downs to both.
      For me if you are watching it live, or from a slime tutorial, then Fall Fair Suite is better. I prefer the song in generally just music-wise and think it is good at introducing the characters.
      However, I think Uranium Suite is better if you are just listening to the soundtrack without any other explanations because it provides more information, and I think it fits the message more (mainly because there are very little solo lines in Uranium Suite and they mostly song together, which fits how they were described to have been all put together as "our six angels" by the press. In their finals moments they all sung together, but got to sing for themselves and share their hopes and dreams and such when they got to talk to Karnak)
      It might not be intentional, and I've only been watching this for a week or so, so idk but I just thought it was a cool detail.

      Saaaame. There's a Ballad of Jane Doe clip if you search "New Day Northwest Ride the Cyclone" and "Works and Process at the Guggenheim" has Noel's Lament, Ballad of Jane Doe, and Sugar Cloud - none of them are full costume or fully staged, but it's what we got!
      EDIT: Also, if you search Citadel Theater, that has a staged Sugar Cloud as well as an opening number that wasn't done at the 5th from an earlier version of the show

    I love how the end of the song contains most of the same lyrics as the first portion but just way more unorganized and just thrown everywhere, it really shows what little comprehension the choir had and that they didn’t yet realize that they were dieing. It really shows exactly how young they were and how their lives were just beginning. But when they start to realize what happened on the roller coaster the lyrics start to change, for example when they start to crash Ocean says “life was about to start” (she used past-tense showing she knows that she has no time left) and Ricky starts to sing and constance was saying “gotta wear shades because it’s so bright” meaning that they “seen the light” so they figure out that their lives are over. It’s kinda upsetting that this wasn’t in the actual musical.

    *[LYRICS]*
    Secure all your items, strap in and hold on for the ride
    "And keep your hands inside" oh, it's about to begin
    I'm bursting within
    Climbing, rising higher, feel my face against the wind.
    Looking down at it all, at the ants caught in their ev'ryday strife
    *_[Noel]_* - My God, this ride is like my life?!
    Take me up and away above this small town cliche
    *_[C/O/M/N]_* - To leave this place behind oh I'm just waiting for the day!
    But at the top of the peak, there's a moment when you're king of the world...
    Then suddenly you're hurled over, up and then down
    Towards the carnival ground
    Scream and join the crazy twisted symphony of sound
    Oh, how I love to hear
    Ev'ry kind of music!
    *_[Mischa & Noel]_* - Blasting in my ears!
    *_[Constance & Ocean]_* - Guns and Roses, Chuck D., The Beatles on calliope
    *_[M & N]_* - It smells like
    *_[C/O/M/N]_* - Cotton candy
    *_[M & N]_* - Corn dogs and rancid beers
    *_[C & O]_* - Colored lights and people screaming, what is real, 'n what is dreaming?
    *_[C/O/M/N]_* - Take me higher! No! No!
    *_[M & N]_* - I never want to stop!
    *_[C & O]_* - Stomach churning, falling money, kinda freaky, kinda funny,
    *_[C/O/M/N]_* - Tick-a, tick-a, tick-a, tick-a, tick-a, tick-a, tick-a, tick-a,
    Woah! Just awaiting for the drop
    *[LARGE CUT IN VIDEO]*
    *_[All]_* - You don't know up from down
    And you feel a little strange. From all that's spinning 'round
    And everything you loved
    And everything you dreamed
    And everything you feared
    And everything that seemed so oh, so terrifying
    Is far behind on the ground
    Like our far from the city, little, itty-bitty, pretty, home town
    Just a teeny, tiny dot on a wee blue ball
    And we've all been spinning
    *_[Boys]_* - All been spinning
    *_[All]_* - 'Round and 'round and 'round, and 'round and 'round. 'Round and 'round, and 'round and 'round and 'round.
    And 'round and 'round, 'round and 'round.
    *_[Boys]_* - And ev'ry kind of music! Blasting in my ears
    *_[C & O]_* - All those colored lights! Uh-oh
    *_[Boys]_* - Cotton candy and rancid beers
    *_[C & O]_* - I gotta wear shades 'cause the future's so bright
    *_[Boys]_* - Take me higher! No! No! I never want to stop!
    *_[C & O]_* - Gravity's keeping me down (down)
    *_[Boys]_* - Take me up, right up to the top
    *_[C & O]_* - I'll never put my feet on the ground
    *_[Boys]_* - And ev'ry kind of music! Blasting in my ears
    *_[C & O]_* - Life was about to start
    *_[Boys]_* - Cotton candy and rancid beers
    *_[C & O]_* - We never should have got into the rickey cart! Oh-no
    *_[Boys]_* - Take me higher
    *_[All]_* - Wait! Are we still on the track! Uh-oh!
    Felt the drop. Now I know.

    • @moonwalkerangel7008
      @moonwalkerangel7008 Год назад

      I can’t explain Noel’s Mic, but with Ricky, he was originally written as a disabled character with a congenital disorder that left him unable to speak and walk without mobility aids, but aside from the backlash, he was only played by a truly disabled actor ONCE and was fired from the last three shows due to coughing and vomiting up blood and was replaced by his non disabled understudy. The character then underwent a rewrite (not sure how as one of the authors died) but the script and Ricky are now written as a character who is just mute after his father was bitten by a snake.
