Passing Strange

Directed by Interdisciplinary Arts and Performance faculty Jeff Kennedy, this rock musical tells the story of a young African American’s artistic journey of self-discovery, beginning in South Central Los Angeles and traveling to Amsterdam and Berlin.

Complicated by his need to rebel against his mother and society, he "passes" through place to place and from lover to lover, his experiences shaped by his black, American, and middle-class identity as he seeks to find “the real.”

This is the Southwest premiere of this 2008 Tony Award-winner for Best Book of a Musical and is presented as a co-production with iTheatre Collaborative. This production is for mature audiences only.
