Black Men Ski

Stew is the mastermind behind Passing Strange, the new musical type theater experience at the Public Theater. I call it a musical type theater experience because it isn't a rock show, and it isn't a musical. It's something else entirely, and it's kept afloat by this artist's genuine talent and radical vision for combining theater, storytelling, and song.

This is one of his songs. It's called Black Men Ski. It isn't in Passing Strange, but it sums up his sensibility and sense of humor. I love it. Behold.

Passing Strange closes July 1, so you still have some time to see it. And see it you should. www.publictheater.org
