Hedwig, the Queen of Glam Rock, stops by Augsburg on her tour! Together with her band, The Angry Inch she gives one of her rousing concerts. Between the songs - sometimes rock number, sometimes country ballad - which tell of her childhood in East Germany, her escape to America and her romantic relationships, she comes closer to the audience than ever before. Don’t miss this show! The musical, which premiered in New York in 1998, has written a unique success story. First shown off-Broadway, starring John Cameron Mitchell as Hedwig, it moved on to the screen only a few years later and was adapted as a film. The work also enjoyed international success, both as a theatre play and as a film. It premiered on Broadway in 2014, starring Neil Patrick Harris, who won four Tony Awards. This is just the latest proof of the cult status that the rock musical and its main character, the drag queen Hedwig, has achieved.
