Passing Strange
Event has passed
You know, it's weird when you wake up in the morning and realize that your entire adult life was based on a decision made by a teenager. A stoned teenager.
A young musician sets out on an electrifying musical odyssey to find himself and his place in the world, swapping his middle-class L.A. upbringing for punk rock and protest in 1980s Amsterdam and Berlin.
Olivier Award-winner Giles Terera (Hamilton), Rachel Adedeji (Dreaming Whilst Black) and Keenan Munn-Francis (Black Dog) star in the European premiere of Passing Strange. Directed by Liesl Tommy (Aretha Franklin biopic Respect, Tony nominated Eclipsed), with book and lyrics by Stew and music by Stew Stewart and Heidi Rodewald.
