In the late 1970s, a young musician travels to Europe to find his true self during this Tony- and Drama Desk-winning rock musical

The Deal

“Passing Strange”

Sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll are the staples of a rock star’s lifestyle; but they can also be the cornerstones of a coming-of-age story. Such is the case with Passing Strange, which follows an African American teen—simply referred to as “the Youth”—and his search for “the real” during the late 1970s. A musician living with his mother in L.A., the Youth sets out on a journey to Amsterdam and Berlin, attempting to find his true self by playing music along the way.

Now celebrating its Canadian premiere at The Opera House, Passing Strange made its debut on Broadway in 2008 and promptly won a Tony for “Best Book of a Musical,” as well as three Drama Desk awards for “Outstanding Musical,” “Outstanding Lyrics,” and “Outstanding Music.” The production has been hailed since for its originality and authenticity, and also for it’s score, which deploys punk rock, R&B, and soul numbers to lift Passing from comedy-drama to rock musical status. The musical has received public praise as recently as 2016, when The Washington Post referred to it as “The musical anyone who adores [the musical] ‘Hamilton’ must see.”
