Hedwig and the Angry Inch

John Cameron Mitchell's Obie-winning glam-rock musical comes to Portland. "Internationally ignored song stylist" Hedwig Schmidt, a fourth-wall smashing, East German rock & roll goddess who also happens to be the victim of a botched sex-change operation, which has left her with just "an angry inch." Hedwig tells her story in the form of a rock gig/stand-up routine backed by the hard-rocking band "The Angry Inch". Hedwig, then a boy named Hansel, meets Luther, an American GI, who promises to take the young man to the States on the condition that he switch his gender. After the bungled operation, Luther abandons newly-named Hedwig in a Kansas trailer park where she turns to music and meets geeky Tommy Speck, whom she takes under her wing and soon falls for. Tommy steals her songs, achieves rock star fame and Hedwig is once again cast aside. She stalks Tommy's world tour, performing in the TGI-Fridays that are situated next door to his stadiums. It's a rocking ride funny, touching and ultimately inspiring to anyone who has felt life gave them an inch, when he/she deserves a mile.

Starring Gene Dante and Lisa van Oosterum.
