HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH tells the story of transsexual rocker Hedwig Schmidt, an East German immigrant whose sex change operation has been botched and finds herself living in a trailer park in Kansas. Based on an immigrant woman who used to baby-sit for librettist John Cameron Mitchell while turning tricks in her Kansas trailer, Hedwig finds herself lost and alone, lashing out in rebellion against her physical and emotional mutilation, all the while motivated by an overpowering desire to find her "other half," whoever or whatever that might be. A poignant mediation on loneliness, gender confusion and the romantic notion that sex is an effort to reconnect two halves of one ideal being. Featuring a kick-ass rock 'n' roll score by composer Stephen Trask.
