Producers of Hedwig and the Angry Inch Partner with Institute to Benefit LGBTQ Youth

Stage Directions: The producers of the Broadway production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch have started a long-term charitable partnership with the Hetrick-Martin Institute, “the nation’s oldest and largest organization helping gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth to reach their full potential.” The Broadway production of Hedwig will donate a portion of each ticket sold to the HMI, home of Harvey Milk High School, a New York City public transfer school where some of the city's most at-risk youth can learn without the threat of physical violence and emotional harm they faced in a traditional educational environment. The partnership will also utilize the resources of the production, including representatives from the show meeting with young people in an educational and mentoring capacity, and additional fundraising support.
