Hedwig and the Angry Inch
by Austin Rainbow Theatre (ART)

Mar. 27 - Apr. 11

(v)Hedwig and the Angry Inch is a groundbreaking punk rock musical that confronts identity, belonging, and survival with ferocity, humor, and heart. Told through a live concert, the show follows Hedwig, an East German immigrant and glam-rock singer, with a sharp tongue, a tender heart, and a story that refuses to stay quiet.

 

Packed with iconic songs like “The Origin of Love,” “Wig in a Box,” “Sugar Daddy,” and “Midnight Radio,” the musical careens between biting humor and unexpected vulnerability. This Tony Award-winning musical skewers fame, love, heartbreak, and identity with equal parts glitter, grit, and defiance, turning personal trauma into a full-throttle act of survival.

 

In this moment—when queer and trans lives are increasingly politicized and threatened—Hedwig and the Angry Inch feels both urgent and defiant. The show refuses shame and insists on visibility, autonomy, and joy as acts of resistance. With its raw storytelling and iconic rock score, the musical becomes a space for collective catharsis, reminding us that self-definition is not only necessary, but revolutionary.
