It's funny when you watch the different openings and you just go "oh hi Kholby"
i swear i’ll watch those compilation clips from diff productions and hes always there 😭😭😭
@@lordofshibainus he IS Noel at this point
He played Noel for TWELVE YEARS he IS Noel gruber 😭
@@Bad_Egg.69.I thought it was 15?? he’s played him sinceee 2008 if I’m not wrong
@@ffayegacha2008 WAS 15 YEARS AGO????
props to kholby, he had to memorize 4 different intro songs
man so have I
Fr
Technically 5 I think but yeah 👍
@@theimplications635 lmfaooooooo
There’s a lot more then just 4!! Some of the actors have confirmed it
kholby wardell carries every single run of this show. it’s not ride the cyclone without him
He was the real og stayed with the whole production even with changes
Frfr. Kholby is literally Noel. Noel would NOT be the same character without him. Thank goodness for Kholby Wardell. He paved the way and gave me (queer kid in a Catholic school) a character I could relate to.
That is very true, but it was Kelly Hudson that brought the fucking house down every night before the Americans FUCKED IT UP!
@@rosesdrawings he's the lucky one. None of the original Canadian cast were even auditioned, they just couldn't find an American fag who could do it
But most importantly I must add that no one can do it like Kholby... He poured his heart and soul into that character, as did ALL of the original cast
Kholby saw basically every character get recasted
Kholby saw
* Rielle swapped for Tiffany, then Taylor, then Tiffany again (Ocean)
* Elliot swapped for Jackson, Alex, Connor then Scott (Ricky)
* Sarah swapped for Emily (Jane)
* Kelly swapped for Lillian (Constance)
* Jameson swapped for Russell, Gus, Adam then Chaz (Mischa)
@@eli_patrick2and don’t forget Gus halper
Its there lol 😅@@Rose-gj6dg
“at least i won’t be working at the mall”
noel i have something to tell you.
😮 foul
I feel like kohlby will never not play Noel, like he is that character it’s not Noel without him
Fr I've seen like 4 different casts and he's in every one of them
By now, he stopped being in the rtc cast. There’s another guy playing Noel in the new cast now
@@beckyy9826 that’s a liscensed production I think
there’s only two legal productions where he’s not, and those ones have a completely new cast so i assume they’re licensed
He said he plays Noel to honor his dead mom in some way! He says it on his tiktok
That moment at 1:30 when they all motion off to the side... that's the sixth member of the choir
OH MY GOD THATS SO CLEVER
would that imply that jane had a solo in this productions intro song.. that would be so cool
It’s so interesting how this is a blend of Uranium Suite, Waiting for the Drop, and Fall Fair Suite. I like to see how the earliest pieces of the productions continue to influence it to this day
It's also weird how they started with the uranium suite, replaced it twice, only to come back to it.
I dont think tragic fact is the best opening song though, since it doesn't have the "round and round" or "floating through space", its not super clear that they're singing about dying - other than the narration in the middle
@@wren5685 the music of tragic fact is pretty good though. Maybe that's why it was used in all versions with different lyrics.
@@wren5685 Every version conveys a different theme, Personally Fall fair suite is the best imo because it shows all of the theme's at once, It sets the general location of death, The Death Itself, The Confusion behind them dying, & Anger as a result of their death; all at once.
@@AverageDunce yeah, i hate that they focus on the town when the show focuses on their death, not uranium, sure they lived there but they died at Wonderville’s Travelling Fun Fair
@@AverageDunce Fall Fair Suite is the best opening,most of the other opening,have more comedy to them,but i like how F.F.S. sets the tone for how dark this musical actually is,yes its a Comedy but they also all died a really dark gory death,and i feel like F.F.S really showcases the Morbidity of it it
Oh man this musical sparks ideas, I just got the mental image that the point and silence at 1:32 was for a Jane/Penny solo…but they can’t remember her, she can’t remember it to join in so they just wait in silence and Karnak joins in at that point because he realises the song isn’t going to continue so it’s a good time to interject. Total headcanon but lord if I can’t unsee it now xD
Actually thats a really cool theory about that moment
It is! In this version of the show, instead of It’s Not A Game, they would sing Uranium Suite (the choir bit) again with jane’s bit.
If you’ve looked around its the “ U R A N I U M! Where my heart goes now and then! “
OMG YES
And then later Jane herself sings in her song
"A choir never complete"
Because everyone forgoet her, her solo didn't happen, and therefore the song wasn't finished
A CHOIR NEVER COMPLETE
@@sp1n4l_sn4p Do you happen to know of any recording of this? I’ve tried looking and there’s none I can find
@@WynnK_i know there’s a recording of the very first uranium suite, that may be what they are referring to. i’m not sure though
I think it's really interesting that (at least every intro song I've heard) they include Jane's riff that none of them seem to hear (except for Ricky in some versions) I think it's a really cool thing that they keep
This probably doesn't make sense, But i imagine its because his voice wasn't heard when he was alive too, So he's the only one who stops to notice her, While everyone else are on their cues.
The only opening number that doesn't include Jane's little riff is the updated/2019 Uranium Suite.
I assume for those its cause of the order the kids are sitting in. Constance and Ocean in the front, Misha and Noel second, which leaves Ricky and Jane in the back. Given, based on Jane's harmonies, I'm pretty sure she dies last so it would sort of follow that Ricky could be second to last. Hence why he's the only one who hears her "scream".
2:42 i like how each of their actions represent them.
Ocean is making herself look perfect and profesional
Noel is just frustrated with everything
Constance seems to be insecure or simply hugging herself
Ricky has these big dreams and his bird arms show that
Mischa is just super angst so he is like showing that
And at 3:26 you have Ocean, Constance and Mischa in running positions (to leave their town), Ricky has his arm up (like a hero or space man) not sure what Noel is doing.
@@descalante64 he is just like trying to understand why mischa would try to leave without him. jkjk
@@descalante64maybe it's like fight or freeze thing and Noel is the freeze one
@@descalante64 maybey cause his 'getaway' is his fantasies? which r inside his head?
Misha is putting on an angry front to hide his true feelings
why is nobody mentioning how mischa absolutely DESTROYS his solo in the beginning
ALSO I LOVE 2:29 THE LITTLE MUSIC THING AND THIS VERSE IS SO GOOD
KHOLBYS VOICE AT 3:38 OH MY GOD
And there's bingos to play!
RIGHT???
cus he doesnt really..
I LOVE how soothing Karnak's voice is in this, it's so nice and mysterious
every actors play Karnak always have a asmr vibe in their voice somehow :3
@@dangtuandung2423 yess the asmr aspect really gets me haha
I'm pretty sure that voice is Jacob Richmond, one of the writers of the musical!
Every Karnak actor has such a weirdly soothing voice. I’d let him tell me where I die
I’m actually playing that role at my theater right now!
Ricky Potts being able to speak and not having any mobility aids in this is such a whiplash
I have not seen the full version of this show, but the script has changed. Ricky is no longer disabled but mute due to his father being killed by Ricky’s pet snake. This was due for two reasons. One, the trope of disability being “cured” in the afterlife was offensive as was the stereotype and two, most actors who played Ricky were able bodied with one exception but he was dismissed in the final few shows due to coughing up Blood. Look up Yannick Robin Eire Mirko.
@@moonwalkerangel7008 I do know that and I have watched Yannick's videos! I am still mad that they decided to completely erase his disability from the show rather than make him a respectful portrayal of a disabled person.
@@candlelight7600yes! It’s so ableist that they removed Ricky all together just because they didn’t want to cast another disabled person in the role because their disability may affect whether they can go on some days-in which the easy solution is to have an understudy. But no, they just casually decided to remove Ricky’s representation for an extremely small reason. Like you said, if they were going to alter it, they could’ve made it more respectful instead
@@moonwalkerangel7008 being mute is a disability tho-?
@@moonwalkerangel7008also I don’t think his disability was completely removed, Karnak said in the afterlife they get to be what they wished they were, not what others saw them as in life. So it explains why Ricky finally talks and moves but kind off oddly as if he’s not used to it.
I adore the transition from "we will never leave this town at all" into the ride itself, chilling! especially with how they act out the ride derailing... defintely the most unsettling opening song imo
I agree!
im starting to think that it genuinely isn't ride the cyclone without kholby wardell
It really isn’t :(
it’s fine cus we still have old versions to look back on :)) I hope kholby is doing okay
4:20 I love how they kinda act out how the accident was when they got hurled through the air. its such good choreography.
3:07 gives me chills EVERY TIME. The way they do the slow rising cut off suddenly and Jane's voice doing that little loopy thing. I've been listening to that part over and over again and I love how it also appeared in Fall Fair Suite
WE CAN NEVER ESCAPE KHOLBY

@@bluewindgetssobare I think the fandom venn diagram is just a circle
@@twist_ending7545 aaa fr tho
2:00 - 3:23 is my favorite part, they hold so much frustration for their boring lives, and I can feel it here. And the Ahhhs give me mega chills, I’m happy those made it into most versions.
I love the Ahhhs too! It's a shame that the updated/current Uranium Suite doesn't include it, even though every other version of the opening does.
I’m suddenly very upset tragic fact wasn’t on the album it is so good
for real
@@cherrybug6123 100% agree
It was combined and rewritten with other songs for urinatinein suite
Girl…
@@noemarin4143 honestly same
i would give my left kidney to see a whole recording of this production- it’s got so much mystery arounf it since it’s so old and gahhh, i would love to be able to even see a few more clops
Me too! It looks so good! I'm pretty sure sugar cloud is on youtube somewhere
me too
I saw this production and it was incredible. It was 10 years ago though so I don't remember it well, sadly. If I didn't see it on the last night of its run I think I would've seen it at least a few more times and maybe remembered more lol. I'm glad that it finally got a cast recording, but there had been so many changes since this production that not much outside of this and Sugar Cloud exists and a few short clips here and there. But the main plot where one of the kids gets the chance to be brought to life was still there -- some people said that plot didn't get introduced until later, but that was definitely not the case - I think it was originally workshopped to be simply a Cabaret, but by the time it made it to the Citadel that plot was there. This Karnak was a lot more solemn than in later productions, but still had some funny lines - especially when he was messing with Ocean about the rules of the game and kept switching it up.
I think this version of Uranium Suite is my favourite because I like how (intentionally) awkward they are and I love the haunted carnival feel of Tragic Fact with the instrumental arrangement, and the brief history of the town. Plus, Jane Doe's haunting vocals. Ugh, she was such a great Jane Doe.
It's interesting though that Ricky doesn't have his mobility aids here and sings with the choir because I swear he had them in this production (for the Uranium part, that is) but I think that since this specific performance was for promotion purposes I can only guess that they didn't want to spoil it.
@@happychaosofthenorth oh wow that’s fascinating! thank you for this, it’s really cool info!!
@@happychaosofthenorth Your part about ricky is further backed by the fact that Elliott Loran seems to not know that choreography and lyrics as well, he just kinda looks awkward
If you look closely at 1:13 when Mischa says his part, you can see Ocean kinda looking back at him, glaring or annoyed and then looks back at the front.
Noel also looks over 😂
I wish they kept Karnak as a puppet. God it was such a good puppet
but isn't karnak a puppet in the proshot?
@@ggiantsintheskyy5670 I believe there is going to be another production soon where Karnak isn't a puppet so that might be what they're referring to.
@@ggiantsintheskyy5670 I haven’t seen the proshot, only the boot on RUclips, where it’s a guy in a suit. Still has puppet aspects to it; sorta like how muppets like big bird work but to a lesser extent, that’s what I meant
They speak very briefly about the change from puppet to costume during the interview the co-creators and the former producer took part in
I love how at the mall part they all depict different jobs
Noel is a taco maker (Noel Gruber hungry hombre meal maybe?)
Ricky is a cashier
Constance is a janitor
Mischa helps customers get things off high shelves.
And and Ocean is a walmart greeter with a overdrawn credit card.
I think Ricky is the people who scans the groceries

4:12 okay but the organ and bass here! The way it sounds like electrical discharge and sparks flying! The coaster flying apart! Whoa!!!
Here are the lyrics!
[OCEAN]
Uranium
[CHOIR]
Uranium
That's our town, our friendly town
[OCEAN]
Uranium
[CHOIR (underneath next line)]
Uranium
That's our town, our highway town
(Ooh…)
[NOEL]
The sky is almost blue here, grain elevators too here
[CHOIR (underneath next line)]
The pride and joy of sweet Saskatchewan
(Ooh…)
[CONSTANCE]
We came here for the half-life
And stayed here for our whole life
[CHOIR]
To give the whole wide world plutonium
[OCEAN]
Uranium
[CHOIR]
Uranium
That's our town, our friendly town
[MISCHA]
There's a bank, an arena, and there's bingoes to play
[CHOIR]
You'll find the finest coffee at the Fat Man Café
[NOEL]
From our marching band, to the general store
[CHOIR]
That’s right!
This whole town was made from Uranium ore
[KARNAK]
And my part in this story? I read all of the children's fortunes. I felt their hopes, thoughts, dreams, knowing they would board the doomed rollercoaster... and I told them nothing. I even suggested they ride the Cyclone. Tonight, my apology, a eulogy in a way of a concert. The final concert of the now deceased St. Cassian Chamber Choir.
[CHOIR (underneath Karnak's dialogue)
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la 9x)
La, la, la, la, la.....
Then, of course, they closed the mine
The town was broke by '99
They closed the public school and city hall
The smart ones all packed up and went
Why stay if you can't pay the rent? A greeter at the mega shopping mall
It's a fact, it's a fact, just another tragic fact: We will never leave this town at all
Our folks, it seems, were too entwined
Stubborn, wouldn't change their mind
Hoping bust might turn right back to boom
Crossed their fingers, prayed for luck
Bowed down to the mighty buck
Waiting in this godforsaken tomb
Empty people, empty mind
Living life or killing time
A dead-end town against dead-end wall
There's nothing cute and nothing sweet
This town has only one main street
Let me face my boredom at the mall
It's a fact, it's a fact, just another tragic fact: We will never leave this town at all...
Aaah!
Aaa-aaahh!
[JANE]
Aaaaaaaaaah!
[OCEAN]
So what do we do to fill our day?
[CHOIR]
Make plans for the getaway
[MISCHA]
Eat a bite, or drink some homemade brew
[CONSTANCE]
One culture here
[CHOIR]
Join the choir
[NOEL]
Build yourself a funeral pyre
So many stimulating things to do!
[CHOIR]
Get stoned on TV satellite
Work all day, sleep all night
[RICKY]
Once a week there's bingo at the hall
[CHOIR]
How can I describe my hate?
It's one year 'till I graduate
[NOEL]
At least I won't be working at the mall
[NOEL, CONSTANCE, RICKY]
Thank God I won't be working at the mall
[CHOIR]
Damned if I'll be working at the mall
It's a fact, it's a fact, just another tragic fact: we will never
Leave!
This!
Town!
At!
All...
Ahh...
Aaa-aaahh!
[JANE]
Aaaaaaaaaah!
the first ellipses is “why stay if you can’t pay the rent, a greeter at the mega shopping mall”, not sure about the TV satellite one 😢 thank you for doing this!!
@@sest6621 You're welcome! And thank you very much for the lyric!
It's either "Get so much tv satellite", or "Get sold on tv satellite".
Also it's "Eat a bite, or drink some homemade brew."
But it's pretty much great!
@@descalante64 im pretty sure its “get stoned on tv satelite”! At least thats what i hear haha
Thank U! I was looking for this
constance is so cuuuute 🥺 her actress has such a lovely smile!
edit: also i absolutely LOVE the mysterious silence right before karnak starts speaking, where jane is "supposed" to be. honestly i just adore everything about jane and how the show portrays her, she's such a wonderful yet tragic character
How is it possible that this is SO MUCH better than Uranium Suite?
It proves that Uranium Suite problem is not the instrumental, are the lyrics
I have to say I really love the bridge of the Uranium Suite from the cast album though, the “empty streets of empty shops” part. And the whispered “Did we finally leave our town?” after “earth is sky and sky is ground” gives me chills
No way, Uranium suite is a lot better. It flows much better in just listening to audio, and preformance.
You are so incredibly wrong lmao, this version genuinely sucks in comparison because it doesn't include the best part of the original, the part that starts "and you're sailing through space, you don't know up from down"
@@miuthegenius6775 each to their own I guess :)
This remains my favorite into song. I love how it’s a fusion of all the other intro songs, and I really wish it had been on the album, at least as a bonus song, along with the other intro songs.
Maybe in the future they’ll add bonus songs like dear Evan Hanson did, the cast recording is still relatively new
@@NoeBlaze Good point, maybe they will.
really love this version!! it gives a really great picture of the town yet still keeps all the spooky elements of them meeting their death! i think this version helps give constance's song more meaning as well- they paint the town as this bleak, horrible life, so her still loving her town and being kind despite it all makes her so much more interesting
I love how most songs sound like carnival songs, which adds to the eerie vibe because thats where they died
It's interesting of how during Uranium Suite, you can hear Jane Doe but can't see her/not shown.
This is a constant and has been in every opening of the show!
@@finleyforevermore well except for the 2009 version with Hank, Astrid and Corey. There's a picture of the choir on stage standing side by side (Except for Ricky who's playing the piano and Jane who is standing with the Choir but facing backwards, looking down and black fabric over her head and doll.):
Corey, Hank, Noel
Jane, Astrid, Ocean, Constance
god I fucking LOVE this version- it's so stilted and creepy and really gives off the fear o being stuck in a small town
AT 4:21 , THE QUICK TILT LOOKS SO COOL, IDK WHY BUT ITS AMAZING
It does!
3:34 kholby carried as usual
💯
Ok this is my new favourite opening, the choreography is amazing and I feel like the frustration at their town would add to much to the whole musical
Yeah, it's so cool! It also gives more context to why Constance hated the town so much and had such a bitter view on her life until her death. It's so rad! Sad, but rad!
kholby has progressed so much since then!!!
NAH MATE THAT KARNAK SCARES THE LIVING SOUL OUT OF ME
i love this oceans voice so much!! its so unique
In this version of Ride the Cyclone, Ocean's song was a gospel tune called Play To Win, a huge style departure from What The World Needs, a Brittney Spears/Taylor Swift inspired number. This likely accounts for the different voice style. I love it as well!
I find it interesting that Ricky doesn’t have his arm crutches/can talk in this run of rtc
He didn't either in the current Blue Bridge production here in Toronto--the final version according to Richmond. He is able bodied (in fact, played by the best dancer in the group even before his song) and while it's mentioned that he never spoke, it's never shown (he plays the tambourine instead... which I didn't remember from earlier versions...) That said, it was brilliantly cast and mounted.
@@EricMontreal22 do you know why they changed him from being disabled?
@@amelooloo I could ask Richmond. I really don't know--he has a different backstory too. I'm not sure if that's the final version or not (I hate to think that it might be because it's pretty hard to get away now with having a disabled role played by an able bodied person...)
@@EricMontreal22 im curious what the new backstory is, did he still have 14 cats? that was my favorite detail of his backstory
it makes sense they would alter it since yeah, the optics i suppose aren't great and "magically healed disabled character" is NOT a well-loved trope. that said it would be nice if they retained him being disabled somehow... even if it was having a degenerative illness that hadnt yet progressed the way it had in earlier runs. i didnt love how they did it but since im disabled myself it was really exciting to see a musical with a disabled character
In some scenes of a trailer he's shown in a wheelchair at a part of where they (Choir) are wearing white robes, except Ocean, I think you can see him.
Just recently got interested in this musical, and I’m glad I did. I find it interesting how it’s a bit of a blend between the others , yet rick is able bodied! Also, this version is definitely more mechanic & chilling than the rest! Love it!
THANK GOD I WON'T BE WORKING AT THE MALL 💃🕺💃🕺
💃
I love seeing different casts and finding nole. It's a comfort to see him, like finding the center
It isn't RTC without him it seems
It's pretty sad cause people only know about the new cast and forget the original. I mean obviously the new cast is the best, but we should remember the original for their legacy.
Wait this is the original cast? I didn't know that
@@gumiperry909 this is the original cast from 2010 to 2013, the VERY FIRST cast. The dream cast with the most famous slime tutorial that we know is in the musical production from 2015 to 2019.
@@dangtuandung2423 Slight correction: The most popular cast that we all know and love is from the 2016 Off-Broadway production at the MCC Theatre. The 2015 cast was the production at the Chicago Shakepseare Theatre, and the 2019 cast was the Alliance Theatre production in Atlanta. :)
@@finleyforevermore yeah I mean basic members of the cast were appeared from 2015 to 2019 like Emily, Tiffany and Lilian.
@@dangtuandung2423 actually, there was a cast before this one. the 2008 version.
The choreography in Tragic Fact is so damn good and for what?
I don’t know what to call style tragic fact is, but I love it
Karnak looks awesome in this version ngl
Fall fair suite is still my favorite (im super biased though) but I finally got around to listening to the other songs and just- ARGH they're so good!
Hey I'm curious, do you like more tragic fact or Uranium Suite? I LOVE this one more than Uranium Suite
i have to admit. fall fair suite is my least favorite. mainly cause i prefer the more chilling and creepy ones. and waiting for the drop slaps way too hard
So much has changed throughout different productions, it's just amazing!
tragic fact is a banger
I was NOT expecting that "Ride the cyclone is about 6 teenagers 🤓☝️"
i think this is my favorite opening of all of them. it takes my favorite elements from each of them and combines them. well i guess each of the other openings took elements from this one and expanded them into individual openings
It's crazy how much can change in a few years.
og rtc will ALWAYS hit for me
I have never heard tragic fact before now. Props to kholby (Noel) that’s crazy how he managed to memorize 4 entrances and work with different people pretty much every time
5 actually. This, 2 different variants or Fall Fair Suite, Waiting For The Drop & Uranium Suite
The current cast needs to get together and sing this
tragic fact is lowkey such a banger (kholby carried ofc)
this song has some really good lyrics that aren't in the new song(s) but oh dear god this song is just a diss track to the mall.
3:52 HELLO??? THAT HAND MOVE IS SO SATISFYING WHAT THE HELL
This is really cool! It gives a lot more context to the actual town. Like - specifics
Did anyone else notice how they leave a small space where Jane should've been with them
This perfectly captures how they all felt stuck I. There town
You cannot run from kholby.
He really said "you can pry Noel from my cold dead hands"
interesting that ricky can speak/is able-bodied in this version. does anyone know why this switch was made?
I know there was some backlash with ableism in the original run cause Ricky is the only one to concede which some people felt perpetuated the whole “living life as a disabled person isn’t worth living” idea. I’m not sure if that’s the specific reason I know there were a couple other ableist things that they changed in later productions but idk all of the details.
@@Cinema_Treats this is a much older production & ricky is currently still canonically disabled
@@Cinema_Treats this is one of the earliest productions of RTC. Also i thought the part where he conceded was cuz he didn’t want to be an asshole?
@@Cinema_Treatspretty sure they changed it because the actor who played him wasn’t disabled themselves. It also always struck me as kinda off that he just throws his walking aids away. Feels like the writers didn’t want to write a disabled character
@@jamison5116 yeah, plus i thought the message is that you can still be content with your life, even disabled. isn’t rtc’s message coming to terms with your death?
this just combines my favourite opening somgs oml
Tbh my least favorite intro song, Fall Fair suite is still my favorite.
Edit: This is certainly good, I like the first few verses after Karnak speaks. The beginning and end are very weak though. I feel like if there was a different performance I'd like it more.
Fall fair suite is definitely one of the best, but I’d say this is my second favorite. I really like waiting for the drop, it’s fun. Uranium suite doesn’t feel as intense to me
I love how at 4:16 their mouths are shaped like they were screaming on the roller coaster, adds such a great detail to the whole song
wait so since there's fall fair original, fall fair Shakespeare theatre and tragic fact here's what it would sound like all mixed up
total darkness spinning black
i know ill never get it back
we will never leave this town at all
ahhhh ahhhhh
aahhhhh ahhhhh ahhhh ahhhh ahhh ah
Fall fair suite is the best intro and I will die on that hill
3:35 Ugh that I just love it
3:38 the to do has the same vocal thing as the Rot
0:21 I don’t know why, but it sounds like there are two people singing before the second voice cuts off. Probably just an audio problem
They look British
LEAVE THEM ALONE LMAO 😭

3:35 this part>>>
It’s so funny how much they hate the mall
To be fair, it's like the only thing to do at their town, they'd get sick of it eventually.
It's so funny because of how real it is to the small-town experience. Either you love the only entertaining place in town with your whole heart in soul, or you can't STAND it.
I think this is probably my least favorite opening song from RTC. All the others focused on the kids like the rest of the musical, but this one feels disconnected from the rest of the show by focusing on Uranium for some reason.
I can't say just how much I agree with you. I mean I like this song separate from the musical but it doesn't make sense in context. The entire point of the musical is about the children and how they were more then their deaths. My favorite opening song has to be fall fair suite as it does show the children dying it focuses more on the kids REACTION to their death and it does a great job of showing their personalities
@@garbageenthusiasm4588 Fall Fair Suite is my favorite too. It fits the musical perfectly. There was no reason to change it.
I think I’m gonna have to disagree on you for this. The kids talk about how they want to get out of Uranium a bunch during the show, and I think this characterizes their frustration and urge to leave really well
@@Pushing_Daisies
Yeah, plus this makes Sugarcloud a whole lot more impactful! It's already amazing, but seeing how dead-end the town is, Constance accepting her life in and her death and learning to love her town and life is so amazing and beautiful
00:01:13 Ocean is so offended by just the fact that Misha is singing-
My dad who has never seen the musical, only clips from me watching it is very persistent tjat Oceans actor in this one is Tiffany. I can't talk him out of this one for some reason
Fun fact about this production after they sing this exact song tragic fact Jane Doe is introduced
I actually love this for some reason
I know I already commented on this video, but I was wondering if I could use the audio (from around 1:36 onward) for an animatic?
Sure thing! Just be sure to credit the cast and creative from the Citadel Theatre production of Ride the Cyclone!
@@croutonwu Of course! I always link the video I got the audio from (if it’s available), would be enough, or should I write it in the description?
@@HuntressLilly Just to be safe, I would write it in the description, but a just a link should be fine!
Happy September 14 everyone! 6:17 pm :)
ricky looks way to happy lmao keep going babe!
I feel like rtc wouldn’t be rtc with kholby
I love this intro and all but they mention the mall so much you’d think that killed them not the roller coaster
Tbh, they seem to talk about it because they see it's the only real somewhat "cool" thing Uranium had
Im wondering, does anyone have a recording of the ORIGINAL ride the cyclone?? The one featured in this video! P l e a s e do not reply with a link to the 2016 performance.
yes we do
@atomicvaudevilleBC Would you be willing to release it maybe? There's absolutely no obligation, but i would love being able to see it!
@@Milkshake-Bakes It's currently in a password protected VIMEO, the 2011 version at Summerworks in Toronto. Let me figure out how we're going to go about releasing it. We'll have to get author's permission.
@atomicvaudevilleBC Okay. Please let me know what's going on when you figure things out!
@@atomicvaudevilleBC OMG I had to reply so I can get notifications 😅
(My kid introduced me to this show and it was maybe my proudest ever parenting moment. Like “my kid has excellent taste in musicals!”)
I accidentally learned all the choreography
man that Karnak figure got looks 😍💄🫦
I love this!
does anyone have a slime tutorial of this version?
This sadly is the only version ruclips.net/video/vnyJITUWVeg/видео.html
i agree, anyone?
i dont think there is currently a slime for this one because of how old it is, you can find clips of some songs on youtube but if there is one its probably in the hands of the theatre
KHOLNY CARRIED I LOBE YOU
I mean at least they’re onto that suspicious looking Mall
i need to watch this..
3:34 khobly's voice is so cool i never get tired of hearing it
this version of the intro just is not hitting at all for me i feel like all the other ones have more of an urgency but i feel like this one is just kinda dead 😭
thats the point though!!! its about the town and their lives instead of their deaths like the other songs!!! /gen
@@BM-up3or oh i did not gather that at all LOL idk i just don’t like it that much tbh
Funny how I like this one more than the Uranium Suite we got on the album haha, but yeah the dead thing is on purpose
@@diliwis5305 yeahh i get that now i guess after being so used to the other ones i just can’t bring myself to like this lol
So in the timeline of all the productions, where does this one fall?
as far as i can find this is from the 2013 canadian tour, so fairly early on
It started in Victoria largely with this cast, in around 2008, and progressed to Vancouver and then across Canada. After it became a hit in Toronto, it moved down to the US where the entire caste was pretty much replaced except Kholby Wardell. There have been a number of productions in the US, and the play has been evolved over time. It is fantastic in every iteration, but I prefer the original cast, having seen them four times live and only seen the later productions on video. Live is so much better and while the music is now available, I would be happy if we could hear all of the Canadian group singing.
I like this better than uranium suit but a little less than fall fair suite, they’re all so good tho
kholby is fucking everywhere and i love this (i just love him thats a kue)
Can someone explain to me why Ricky is singing in this intro 😭
I get that since this is a more recent show they’re using the new script that erased his disease but I thought he was still mute??
This is actually the first Canadian tour of RtC before it came to the US. There was no real plot, it was a cabaret style show and Ricky's character was a bit different, one such difference being his ability to speak pre-accident.
@@croutonwu Ohh that makes a lot more sense now thanks!
