I know there are only a few shows left, but if you are in Sydney you simply MUST go see Hedwig and the Angry Inch at at newtown. I went last night with the Snook, Amy, Andrew, and Morgan. It was AWESOME. I'd seen the movie a couple times and really liked it, and I didn't think there was any way a small local production could live up to it. I was so wrong. Iota was absolutely incredible as Hedwig. Funny, sexy, tragic... and with legs to die for. I was so thrilled to hear my favorite song performed live. The whole time, though, I kept wondering when the actor playing Tommy was going to make his appearance. Needless to say, the climax of the stage show is a lot different to the one in the movie (and a lot more powerful). Even the Snook enjoyed it, and he hates musicals. I don't think anyone can help being blown away by the Iota's incredible energy and talent, sustained pretty much alone on stage for an hour and a half. GO SEE IT if you can!
