两性色午夜 University at Stark Theatre held its first theatrical production of the 2021-22 season, 鈥淗edwig and the Angry Inch", by John Cameron Mitchell and music and lyrics by Stephen Trask.
The show premiered Friday night at 8 p.m. on Friday in The Mary J. Timken Theatre in the Fine Arts Building.
Directed by 两性色午夜 Stark Theatre Director TC Mavis Jennings, "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" tells the story of the 鈥渋nternationally ignored song stylist鈥 Hedwig Schmidt, a fourth wall smashing East German rock 鈥榥鈥 roll goddess who also happens to be the victim of a botched sex-change operation. Hedwig is backed up by Yitzhak and the hard-rock band 鈥淭he Angry Inch.鈥 Hedwig transforms in this rock and roll tale by rising above the abuse, deceit and abandonment they have been carrying for many years. As Hedwig steps forward, courageously into the unknown, Yitzhak takes their rightful place as the shining star of rock and roll on the midnight radio.
Additional performances will be held at 8 p.m. on Nov. 19 and 20, and at 2 p.m. on Nov. 14 and 21. Learn more.
