Backstage At HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH With Neil Patrick Harris & Company

The creators and cast of the new Broadway production of HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH participate in a new behind the scenes featurette showcasing the gender-bending rock musical which is now available to view.

"I've kind of always known that Neil Patrick Harris was the person to play this role if it wasn't going to be John [Cameron Mitchell]," says composer/lyricist Stephen Trask about the hotly anticipated new production.

"It seemed like the right role for him and he seemed like the right actor for us - and really worth the wait," Trask concludes.

The official description of HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH is as follows: "Neil Patrick Harris makes his long-awaited return to Broadway in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask's landmark American musical, directed by Tony Award® winner Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening). Heartbreaking, innovative, and wickedly funny, Hedwig has inspired a generation. The show was called "the Best Rock Musical Ever" by Rolling Stone and "the most exciting rock score written for the theatre since, oh, ever," by Time Magazine. Hedwig is Neil Patrick Harris' first appearance on Broadway since he starred as The Balladeer/Lee Harvey Oswald in the 2004 Tony-winning revival of Assassins. His other Broadway credits include Proof and Cabaret. He has been honored with four Emmy Awards."
