Dan’s Note
“From the moment I encountered Ride, I was struck by its infectious spirit and its ability to speak to audiences of all ages. This musical captures something deeply human: the desire to belong, to break free, and to discover who we are when we take a leap into the unknown. It’s a story filled with heart, humour, and unforgettable music – and one that feels especially resonant right now. I am thrilled to bring this vibrant Canadian premiere to our stage and to share it with our community!”
