Now, Jerick Hoffer returns home to Seattle to reprise his incredible performance as Hedwig Schmidt, the transgender rock-and-roll goddess who recounts her outrageous life story as the lead singer of a sleazy lounge act, backed by her recalcitrant husband Yitzhak and her band, "The Angry Inch."

When notorious talk show host Jerry Springer is accidentally shot on the set of his infamous, eponymous TV show, he descends into Hell, where Satan forces Jerry to do a special show featuring suspiciously familiar guests ... until God intervenes and demands that Jerry come to Heaven and help God judge humanity.
Jerry Springer: The Opera channels all the mayhem and excitement of the lurid TV talk show that held worldwide television audiences in utter rapture - the perfect fodder for opera. Featuring songs like "Bigger Than Oprah Winfrey" and "Jerry Eleison" - plus a troupe of tap-dancing Ku Klux Klan members - it's no wonder Jerry Springer: The Opera is called a "shocking, irresistibly funny masterpiece" (London's The Sunday Times).
