Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Celebrating gay and queer heroes and heroines in celluloid.

Beacons, Icons and Dykons is a playful ode to gay and queer cinema. A film is screened alongside performances, talks and a diverse range of entertainment inspired by the theme and heros. From Dolly Parton to Kenneth Anger and John Waters, we’re honouring them one by one.

This special Pride performance will be followed by a screening of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH

Directed and staring John Cameron Mitchell (who brought us Shortbus),this outrageous and unexpectedly hilarious adaptation of the hit musical tells the story of Hedwig, born a boy named Hansel in East Berlin, who fell in love with an American G.I. and underwent a sex-change operation in order to marry him and flee to The West.

One of our all time favourites we are proud showcase this heart-warming, emotional roller coaster, with its amazing soundtrack, the magic of the silver screen and wonderful performances from BID.
