Hedwig and the Angry Inch
October 19 - 28, 2023
Text by John Cameron Mitchell
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Trask
This groundbreaking Obie-winning Off-Broadway smash also won multiple awards for its hit film adaptation. It tells the story of “internationally ignored song stylist” Hedwig Schmidt, 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.”
*Stageworks Off-Script production, not included in the standard season subscription.
"Hedwig and the Angry Inch at Stageworks Houston is one of the year's most electrifying experiences"
-Houston Chronicle
"Matthew Brennan... is bewitching from the moment he saunters do the aisle to the stage."
"Nicolette Montana... shifts expertly from disdain to heartbreak to joy, sometimes within seconds."
"One of the year's most riveting productions on any Houston stage."
