My oh my, what a great night of theater we encountered when we went to see Hedwig. I wasn't really sure what to expect except that a lot of my weirder friends liked this show. (weirder meaning the ones that really grab onto a trend and run with it till the end of time, even after the fad is over)
Michael C Hall had taken over the role 1 week prior. We went with my father in law (he picked it) and while he didn't like it, both me and my husband DID like it. We could see how the role would be very different with a different performer. (Neil Patrick Harris and Andrew Rannells probably were better as they have better voices and are gay whereas Michael is more of a tv actor and doesn't sing all the time, and is straight) I found his performance impressive and the scrim work in the show to be superb!
We had 1st row mezzanine. I couldn't see the stuff upstage right! But mostly everything happened center stage!
This is how the show ended. Yummy! We were all a little confused as to what the ending of the show really meant, or what the whole show even meant, except the underlying message which was to accept yourself as you are.
