About the Show

tep right up for a wildly original musical unlike anything you’ve seen before. When six Canadian chamber choir teens meet an untimely end on a rollercoaster, they awaken in a bizarre limbo where a mysterious mechanical fortune teller offers them one final challenge: tell the story of their life. Only one can return to the real world. With sharp wit, unforgettable songs, and characters who are as hilarious as they are heartbreaking, this bold and genre-defying show celebrates the messy, joyful, ridiculous beauty of being alive. A global cult sensation with over half a billion views on TikTok, it’s finally arriving in Newcastle. Running time 1 hr 30 mins, no interval. Running times are approximate and subject to change without notice. Recommended for persons aged 13+. Contains theatrical lighting.
