Review: PASSING STRANGE at Theo Ubique Cabaret
by Kathleen Anwar - June 26, 2023
What did our critic think of PASSING STRANGE at Theo Ubique Cabaret? Originally premiering in 2006, Passing Strange is a rock musical that pushes the boundaries of Broadway storytelling and delves into themes of identity, love, and artistic rebellion. The main character, The Youth, embarks on a journey to find “The Real” that takes him from his middle-class Black Los Angeles Church to Amsterdam, and finally to Berlin. Theo Ubique’s lively rendition brings this coming-of-age story to life in their wonderfully immersive theater.
