Passing Strange
[PASSI]
Feature Documentary, 2009, 134 min
Directed by: Spike Lee
Interests: Adaptation, African American, African American Director, Drama, Musical, NY Director, Social Issues

After a sold-out run at The Public Theater, a Broadway transfer, and multiple nominations and awards (including a Tony), the spectacular Passing Strange played its final super-energized performance in 2008. But before that final curtain, Spike Lee captured the show on film, amazingly retaining and transmitting the power and intensity of co-creator/star Stew and crew's performances so that nobody has to miss one of the greatest theatrical productions in recent memory. Join Lee, Stew, and co-creator Heidi Rodewald for a conversation following the screening. Read More

The new season at The Vineyard Theatre was just announced, and it is going to kick off with a new show written and performed by Colman Domingo!

"The new season will kick off in September with A Boy and His Soul, written and performed by Passing Strange's Colman Domingo. Directed by Tony Kelly, the production is described as a "moving and hilarious new play that explores the life-experiences of a young African-American man in 1980s Philadelphia, propelled by the beat of classic soul music."

Anyone been able to get tickets for TFF yet?

I can't get through either by phone, online or email...it may already be sold out...only rush tickets come up.



NEVER MIND -- looks like it was a computer glitch.

Yes, a rather trauma-inducing computer glitch for those of us who tried to get tickets for the first 45 minutes or so and thought we'd be relegated to the rush ticket line! But I'm glad they worked it out--this should be one of the coolest events of the year, and I'm really thrilled that I'll be there!

At least she got to sing a bit before getting pushed in front of a train.

Check it out guys! The next thing to look forward to. Stew and Heidi will be taking part in Lincoln Center Out of Doors this summer. They'll be presenting a new show: The Broadway Problem on August 19th at Damrosch Park. That's the park next to the Met Opera house.

Posted: 5/12/09 at 11:18pm

Hey Scaryos, fans, etc.: fyi - if you're a "friend" of David Ryan Smith (Stew's undestudy in PS) on Facebook, he just posted some cool rehearsal photos.

Also, mark your calender for August 16, Stew at Lincoln Center outdoors. Ck. out Frogs_' post. I believe those things are free.

Is Spike Lee's film a documentary about Passing Strange, or just the show filmed?

[thetinymagic2]

Posted: 5/12/09 at 11:40pm

it's the show.
