'Ride the Cyclone' starts SIU's School of Theater and Dance stage season
The carnival deaths of six teenagers -- and their subsequent efforts to be the one chosen to come back to life -- hits Southern Illinois University Carbondale's McLeod Theater stage Oct. 12 to 15 as the School of Theater and Dance opens its 2023-2024 season with the dark comic musical "Ride the Cyclone." The season presents "opportunities for people to see shows that are not often produced," said H.D. Motyl, director in the School of Theater and Dance. "All four of these shows are performances that have not played in this area ever, or for a very long time. It's fun for us to give audiences something that is fresh."
