HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH
Text by John Cameron Mitchell
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Trask
Directed by Anna See-Jachowski
Musical Direction by Eric Jones
ABOUT: Hedwig and the Angry Inch tells the story of Hedwig Robinson – an internationally-ignored, gender-bending punk rock goddess from the other side of the Iron Curtain. Following a massive scandal involving the world-famous rock star who stole her songs, Hedwig embarks on a quest to reclaim the narrative by telling her outrageous and unexpectedly touching life story – all while backed by her rock band, “The Angry Inch.” This hilarious, heartbreaking, and all-around sensational journey of acceptance, self-awareness, and forgiveness has been captivating audiences worldwide since its off-Broadway debut in 1998, and MET is proud to bring it back to Frederick after over 20 years.
