About Ride The Cyclone
Darkly comic, unexpectedly moving cult hit returns. Ready to ride again?
Hold on tight — critically acclaimed Ride The Cyclone runs at Southwark Playhouse Elephant from 19 June to 22 August 2026. Once around simply wasn’t enough.
Described as “seriously impressive and laugh-out-loud funny” (Evening Standard ★★★★) and “wonderfully eccentric” (The Guardian ★★★★), this darkly comic, refreshingly weird and strangely life-affirming musical has captivated audiences and critics alike.
After a freak roller-coaster accident, six teenagers find themselves suspended in limbo and offered one final chance to return to life. One by one, they step into the spotlight to prove why they deserve that second chance.
“Every number is a winner.” (WhatsOnStage ★★★★★)
This 90-minute musical is a five-star theatrical thrill ride. London — this is one ride you can’t miss.
