THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR
Twenty-five years after it exploded out of Sundance and into cult immortality, Hedwig and the Angry Inch returns to the big screen.
In 2001, a glamorous punk-rock odyssey about identity, reinvention, a divided self, and an unfinished love story blazed through Sundance, where it won Best Director and the Audience Award, and refused to be forgotten.
Twenty-five years later, Hedwig and the Angry Inch returns—raw, resplendent, and more radical than ever.
Join writer, director, and Golden Globe–nominated star JOHN CAMERON MITCHELL for a national anniversary tour celebrating the critically-lauded, multi-award-winning film that redefined the movie musical and remains as angry—and ELECTRIC—as the day it premiered.
The event includes a stunning 4K screening of the film—unless you live in Chicago, where you’ll see an original 35mm print—followed by an in-person conversation with Mitchell featuring behind-the-scenes stories from its creation, audience Q&A, and a special acoustic performance—with post-show meet-and-greet add-ons available.
