FULLERTON, Calif. — The Maverick Theater brings a unique rock ‘n’ roll concert to its stage with their highly anticipated production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. This groundbreaking musical by John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask was hailed by Rolling Stone as “the best rock musical ever.”

Don’t miss this glam rock masterpiece that defied conventions as it explored ideas of fame, gender, and “the origin of love.”
