Hedwig and the Angry Inch (1998)
THE NEO-GLAM POST-PUNK ROCK MUSICAL
The audience is watching genderqueer rock singer Hedwig Robinson's musical act as she follows rockstar Tommy Gnosis' (much more successful) tour around the country. Occasionally Hedwig opens a door onstage to listen to Gnosis's concert, which is playing in an adjoining venue.
