Hedwig And The Angry Inch: What's The Origin Of Love, Anyway?

Date of Review:  Apr 23, 2004
The Bottom Line: "To be free, one must give up part of oneself" is a belief Hedwig struggles with.
Review: Don t you know me, Kansas City? I m the new Berlin Wall. Try and tear me down!

Review: John Cameron Mitchell s vibrant, visionary Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001) follows the life of a rock and rolling East German by the name of Hansel from childhood through the moment he truly comes to accept himself as unique.
