BWW Review: PASSING STRANGE at Playhouse On Park
How does one find "the real"? That is the question that "Youth" the protagonist in PASSING STRANGE asks himself as he takes the audience along on his long journey of self-discovery. In this the second production of their seventh season, Playhouse on Park in West Hartford has taken a chance on a lesser known piece - one that, while it did receive critical acclaim in its original New York production, is not necessarily a household name, even among theater aficionados.

And this reviewer certainly experienced something unique and brilliant, and dare I say "real" on the Playhouse stage.
