Stew

Performance Artist, Creator of "Passing Strange"
The "mesmerizing stage presence of [this] chubby, bald, moon-faced, middle-aged performer named Stew" — as described by the New York Times — will soon be on display on Broadway when his autobiographical musical, "Passing Strange," opens at the Belasco Theater on February 28th. Also known as an underground "Afro-baroque" musician, his 2000 release "Guest Host" was named Album of the Year by Entertainment Weekly.
