Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Thursday, July 26, 2018 @ 8:00 pm - Saturday, August 11, 2018 @ 10:30 pm
Wolfbane Performing Arts Center, 618 Country Club Rd
Appomattox, VA 24522 United States

This groundbreaking smash tells the story of “internationally ignored song stylist” Hedwig Schmidt, a fourth-wall smashing East German rock ‘n’ roll goddess who also happens to be the victim of a botched sex-change operation. This outrageous and unexpectedly hilarious story is dazzlingly performed in the form of a rock gig/stand-up comedy routine backed by the hard-rocking band “The Angry Inch.” It’s a rocking ride, funny, touching and ultimately inspiring to anyone who has felt life gave them an inch when they deserved a mile.

**Due to strong language and sexual content, this show is recommended for ages 13+

Tickets:
$25 General Admission
$20 Student, Senior, Military
Group rates available, email boxoffice@wofbane.org for more information.

** No outside food or drink, pets, or open toed shoes allowed.
