Jacob Richmond News

During their 2023-24 Season Announcement Reception last night, CATCO announced that it has changed its name to The Contemporary Theatre of Ohio.

Now having its California premiere at OC's Chance Theater in Anaheim through February 26, RIDE THE CYCLONE is a must-see, wonderfully odd, yet endearingly touching musical comedy that feels like a thoughtfully bonkers hybrid of The Breakfast Club and It's A Wonderful Life, with room for a dollop of Tim Burton-esque quirkiness.

Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater has announced a two-week extension of Ride the Cyclone, now playing through through March 5, 2023, to meet audience demand.

Go See It! Join the enthralled cult! It’s for anyone who was ever a theater or choir kid. It’s for anyone who ever had a sexuality of any flavor whatsoever, or just even an inner life. It’s for the frustrated amateur metaphysician in each of us. And it is certainly for the amateur detective in each of us; the creators, Jacob Richmond and Brooke Maxwell, have sprinkled clues and non sequiturs everywhere for us to ponder.

Ride the Cyclone is a simply wonderful evening of fun, escapist theatre. It's quirky and unconventional and playing at Arena Stage's Kreeger Theater through February 9th.

Chance Theater will present the California Premiere of “Ride the Cyclone.” This musical will preview from January 27 through February 3, and regular performances will begin February 4th and continue through February 26.

Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater announced the cast for the D.C. premiere of Ride the Cyclone. Arena Stage’s Kreeger Theater will be transformed into somewhere between earth and—well, not earth—when Ride the Cyclone plays from January 13 – February 19, 2023.

4 Chairs Theatre presents RIDE THE CYCLONE by Brooke Maxwell & Jacob Richmond, February 16-19 and February 23-25, 2023 at 7:30pm at John and Nancy Hughes Theater at Gorton Center Lake Forest, Illinois.
