HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH

Thursdays-Saturdays @ 8
Sundays @ 2

DON’T YOU KNOW ME WINSTON SALEM?! I’M THE NEW BERLIN WALL, BABY! TRY AND TEAR ME DOWN!!

Hedwig and the Angry Inch is back at Camel City Playhouse for another run this June!

The concept of the stage production is that the audience is watching genderqueer rock singer Hedwig Robinson’s musical act as she follows rock star Tommy Gnosis around the country on his wildly successful tour. Gnosis is recovering from an incident that nearly ruined his career, a moment that intimately involved Hedwig. Capitalizing on her notoriety from the incident, Hedwig is determined to tell the audience her story.

Brilliant, innovative, moving, and wickedly funny, Hedwig is out to set the record straight about her life, her loves, and the operation that left her with that angry inch. Part rock concert, part cabaret, part stand-up comedy routine, this one-of-a-kind musical proves time and again that an indomitable spirit can’t ever be tied down.

Special appearance by Sorta Spooky as The Angry Inch! (Alex Ward, Dice Jordan, and Jax Velazquez)

To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar by Douglas Carter Beane

6:30pm

To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar is a vibrant, heartwarming road-trip comedy that follows three New York City drag queens—Noxeema Jackson, Vida Boheme, and Chi-Chi Rodriguez—as they embark on a cross-country journey to Hollywood for a national pageant. When their classic Cadillac breaks down in the sleepy, isolated town of Snydersville, the trio is forced to pass the time stranded among the local residents. Instead of clashing, their fabulous presence, infectious confidence, and fierce empathy breathe new life into the town, helping the locals confront their own struggles with love, self-esteem, and domestic abuse.

What makes the film a beloved cult classic is its joyful, ahead-of-its-time celebration of queer identity wrapped in a standard, feel-good Hollywood comedy structure. To Wong Foo balances campy humor and extravagant style with genuine emotional depth. It remains a poignant, hilarious testament to the power of community, chosen family, and the transformative impact of living one’s life authentically and with unapologetic glamour. Celebreate the cult classic movie this Pride month with a staged reading of the iconic screenplay!
