HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH Will Come to New Conservatory Theatre Center With Alternating Hedwigs
Performances will run May 8th through June 7th, 2026.
New Conservatory Theatre Center will closeout the 25-26 Season with the iconic, Tony Award-winning Hedwig and the Angry Inch by John Cameron Mitchell with music and lyrics by Stephen Trask. The production will feature alternating performers in the role of Hedwig. It will be directed by Chris Morrell, musically directed by Jake Gale, and choreographed by Fuschia.
Neither the Berlin Wall, nor the scars of her past are enough to stop Hedwig Schmidt from clawing out of the rubble and rising to new heights. The self-proclaimed “internationally ignored song stylist” is ready to set the record straight and rock the stage in the performance of a reclaimed lifetime. Catch Hedwig LIVE at NCTC!
