Punk is now a comedy let’s sing all about it

By: Andrea Janov

Broadway innovators and Tony Award winners for the work on Passing Strange, Stew and Heidi Rodewald have penned the music for Punk Princess, a new play written by Yasmine Lever.
Punk Princess is the story of a young rich girl who is not accepted in the punk scene of her native London so she travels to New York City to reinvent herself by changing her past. Stew and Heidi seem to be natural picks for the score due to the success of Passing Strange and its underlying punk attitude.
