So you think Hedwig is the name of Harry Potter's owl? Then this show might not be for you (at least, it's not for the child in you).This Hedwig is a transgender punk rock singer created by John Cameron Mitchell. The 'rock concert' is actually "an adult, thought-provoking musical about the quest for individuality," as a NY Times reviewer put it. The movie based on the stage show has a cult following, but it's great to have that heart-pounding beat live in person.
We're getting the chance. Tessa Gregory of e.v.e. productions plans to launch a Spokane production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch in Spokane during Pride Week. Performances are Friday June 8 at 8 p.m., Saturday June 9 at 8 p.m., and Sunday June 10 at 4 p.m. It'll be at the Ignite space, the former Fat Tuesdays/Bayou Brewery at Hamilton and Trent. Tickets are $15, proceeds benefit the LGBT Center (formerly the Rainbow Regional Community Center). More at this website.
