<i>Hedwig and the Angry Inch</i>, "the best rock musical ever" (<i>Rolling Stone</i>) follows the journey of "internationally ignored song stylist" Hedwig Schmidt, victim of a botched sex-change operation, as dazzlingly recounted by Hedwig (née Hansel) herself in the form of a lounge act, backed by the rockband The Angry Inch, and transported to the Belasco Theatre "for one night only" and taking over the set for <i>Hurt Locker: The Musical</i>. This is the original text from the Broadway production of John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask’s landmark American musical.
