John Cameron Mitchell

Arts, TV & Film

John Cameron Mitchell is the visionary star and director of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH and he’s coming to Melbourne! So to celebrate, we turned our attention to his remarkable filmography, which also includes experimental tour de force SHORTBUS and the Oscar nominated RABBIT HOLE.

Our guest was Mitchell himself, who spoke to us in an exclusive chat about why he thinks HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH has continued to resonate for nearly 20 years, and how it fits into the current cinematic and political landscape.

John Cameron Mitchell will perform his one man show, THE ORIGIN OF LOVE: THE SONGS AND STORIES OF HEDWIG, at the Arts Centre, Melbourne this July.
