About this listen
Guest host Peter Clowney talks with John Cameron Mitchell on this archive edition of Fresh Air. He wrote, directed and starred in the off-broadway hit rock musical, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, with songs by Stephen Trask. The play has just been made into a new film, also directed by and starring Mitchell. The film won the Audience Award for Drama and the Directing Prize at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival. The story is about Hedwig, a German immigrant living in a trailer in Kansas, the victim of a botched sex change operation. With the help of her band, the Angry Inch, she tells the story of her life. (Original Broadcast Date: July 23, 2001)
