We hope you will join Miss Irene, Kauffman, Jeske, and myself on journey to the afterlife and back. (No, we are not doing Hadestown again. We are going to take a ride down a different kind of track)

Our Fall 2025 musical features six teenagers from Saskatchewan, Canada whose lives are tragically cut short in a freak rollercoaster accident. When they awaken in a dilapidated warehouse full of carnival equipment, they learn about their death from a fortune telling machine named THE AMAZING KARNAK. He tells them he has the power to restore one person to life, if they can all agree on who to send back.

The teens take turns singing about their life, sharing their hopes, dreams, and secrets… and by the end, the characters and the audience will realize that life is not a game. Life is about everything you loved. Everything you dreamed. Everything you shared, and everything that seemed so terrifying. Life is a ride. It’s just a ride. So enjoy the ride. Embrace it.
