To celebrate the opening of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH at the SHN Golden Gate Theatre, Humphry Slocombe and SHN have collaborated on a limited edition HEDWIG-inspired ice cream flavor.

Inspired by the musical number "Sugar Daddy" in what Rolling Stone calls "the Best Rock Musical Ever," this unique, ice cream of caramelized, sweetened condensed milk combined with coarse salt and Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla reveals its complex, layered flavors through each bite.

"It just seemed like a natural fit to make a tribute flavor for Hedwig based on the candy," says Humphry Slocombe Co-Founder and Executive Chef Jake Godby.

The limited edition ice cream is available at both Humphry Slocombe locations -- 2790 A Harrison Street (Mission Location) and 1 Ferry Building (Ferry Building Location) -- throughout the month of October. Visit HumphrySlocombe.com for more information.

The San Francisco engagement of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH comes to the SHN Golden Gate Theatre this October 2 through October 30.

HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH, with book by John Cameron Mitchell and music and lyrics by Stephen Trask, directed by Michael Mayer, received rave reviews on Broadway and won four 2014 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival. It was also awarded Best Musical Revival by the Drama Desk Awards, Drama League Awards, and Outer Critics Circle Awards. The Grammy nominated Original Broadway Cast album for HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH is available from Atlantic Records.

HEDWIG has inspired a generation of young theatre writers and audiences. This wickedly funny and heartbreaking show was called "the most exciting rock score written for the theatre since, oh, ever," by Time Magazine.
