Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Raised a boy in East Berlin, Hedwig undergoes a traumatic personal transformation in order to emigrate to the U.S., where she reinvents herself as an “internationally ignored” but divinely talented rock diva. Based on the trailblazing musical from writer–director–star John Cameron Mitchell and composer lyricist Stephen Trask , Hedwig and the Angry Inch tells Hedwig’s life through her music, an eclectic assortment of original punk anthems and power ballads a tribute to the transcendent power of rock and roll.
