“Hedwig and the Angry Inch” premieres at Laboratory Theater of Florida

Laboratory Theater of Florida

The Laboratory Theater of Florida in Fort Myers begins performances of the rock musical “Hedwig and the Angry Inch”  Jan. 18.  The four time Tony Award-winning musical tells the story of Hedwig and how he escaped East Berlin before the fall of the Berlin Wall.  The story involves a botched gender-reassignment surgery and explores universal themes of loss, betrayal, defiance and finding one’s own identity.  We hear from the show’s director Paul Graffy, musical director, Julian Sundby and cast members PJ McCready, and Misha Ritter Polomsky.
