Cleveland Public Theatre
presents
Hedwig And
The Angry Inch

Directed by Lester Thomas Shane
Text by John Cameron Mitchell
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Trask

Good Things Come In Small Packages
Get ready, Cleveland! Hedwig is inching her way into town just in time for
the holidays. This post-punk neo-glam rock odyssey based on Plato’s
Symposium tells the story of internationally ignored song-stylist: Hedwig
Schmidt, a fourth-wall-smashing, German rock & roll goddess who also happens
to be the victim of a gruesomely botched sex-change operation.

Lots of Performances!

Performed in Cleveland Public Theatre’s Gordon Square Theatre, Hedwig And
The Angry Inch opens Friday, December 7 at 8:00 p.m. and runs through
Monday, December 31, 2001 with previews on December 5 and 6 at 8:00pm. All
performances will be held on Thursday and Friday evenings at 8:00p.m.with
two shows on Saturdays at 7:00p.m. and 10:30p.m. with an extra show on
Sunday December 30, 2001 at 7:00p.m. Tickets are $20.00 for general
admission and $15.00 for seniors and students and $12.00 for previews.
Limited special box seats are available for $25.00. For more box office
information and reservations please call 216.631.2727.

New Year's Eve Like No Other!
Join the cast and staff as we party like rock stars on the final day of 2001
with the final performance of Hedwig and The Angry Inch. CPT is offering the
best deal in town this New Year’s Eve; for a mere 50 bucks you can enjoy
dinner at the theatre with food provided by Naturally Yours, the final
performance of Hedwig and The Angry Inch and the party to beat all other
parties in the Mainstage Theatre featuring SAFMOD and Pureplex. You can’t
beat this deal with a stick! Tickets are moving quickly, so call
216.631.2727 to reserve your spot with us on New Year's.

Discounted Tickets for Groups!
Got friends? Great. Pull ten of them together and come on down to the
theatre for highly discounted tickets to any performance. Call 216.631.2727
ext. 209 for more information. Really want to see the show for cheap? How's
this? $8.00 tickets for groups of ten or more on Preview Thursday December
6, 2001 at 8:00pm. Call today!

Be A Part of the Action
Come dressed for the occasion!! We're encouraging all fans of the wig to
come in costume.

Also!!!

Hedwig needs volunteer waitstaff to provide a little cabaret table service
prior to the performances. No experience is necessary, just the ability to
have a lot of fun as part of the production and the desire to see a kick ass
show for free. Make great tips, actors get experience serving and see and be
a part of the show.  For information, call Vince at 216.631.2727 ext. 209.

Great Story!
Hedwig and the Angry Inch tells the story of transsexual rocker Hedwig
Schmidt, an East German immigrant who submits to a sex change operation in
an attempt to gain American citizenship. The operation is horribly botched
and Hedwig is left with a one inch strip of undefined genitalia. Living
alone and penniless in a trailer park in Kansas, Hedwig meets Tommy Speck
who she introduces to the world of music, eventually grooming him to become
a major rock star, Tommy Gnosis. Tommy’s fame rises and Hedwig is left alone
once again feeling rejected, spiteful and jealous. Hedwig regains notoriety
when she and Tommy fall victim to a terrible accident that puts them in the
headlines of every major tabloid. We now find Hedwig performing with her
band, The Angry Inch along with her second husband Yitzak across the river
from the venue where her former lover Tommy Gnosis is playing to a sell out
crowd.
