TheatreLAB @ The Basement - October-December 2014

Book by John Cameron Mitchell       
         Music and Lyrics by Stephen Trask
   Directed by Maggie Roop

Set Design by Jamie Nicholas      
                Costume Design by Emily Atkins
This groundbreaking rock musical tells the story of "internationally ignored song stylist" Hedwig Schmidt (Matt Shofner), a fourth-wall smashing East German rock'n'roll goddess who also happens to be the victim of a botched sex-change operation, which has left her with just "an angry inch."  This outrageous and unexpectedly hilarious story is dazzlingly performed by Hedwig and her hard-rocking "The Angry Inch" as she sings songs and shares stories of her search for "The Origin of Love" and her other half.  It's a rocking ride, funny, touching, and ultimately inspiring to anyone who has felt that life gave them an inch when they deserved a mile.
