Featuring footage of my girl Joan Jett playing with one of the Hedwig stars, on the song "Angry Inch" during the 1999 cast album release party!
Joanie always has the coolest gigs, hangs with the most interesting crowd, and does THE BEST MUSIC, whether she originated it or not. The woman has impeccable music taste, and the songs of "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" are no exception!
Speaking of all things "Joan", fun fact: Hedwig star John Cameron Mitchell's mother is named Joan too, and she is featured in this documentary as-well.
Another fun Joan-related fact: The name John is actually a male version of the name Joan, so there's A LOT of Joanie-ness to enjoy here! But, I digress...
This is a good documentary, that shows how the concept developed into the full-blown cult classic that we know and love today. Not to be missed by "Hedwig" fans!
