New Year, New Project

This is a project I've been considering for a long time and figured the new year was the best time to launch it.

Hedwig Robinson is a character who loves a good pop culture reference and so do we! But as Hedwig expands in both age and international popularity, there are going to be references that ring less of a bell in 2019 than they did in 1998 or ones that make less sense in Korea than they did on Broadway.

The Hedwig Encyclopædia was created to explain all of the questions I've asked or been asked as a die hard fan for the last five years such as: What exactly is an 8-track? How does German university work (and how did it work in the now-defunct East Berlin??)

"Can two people actually become one again? And if we're driving on the Autobahn [when it happens] can we still use the Diamond Lane?"

This blog will be mirrored here and on WordPress. If you want a more social experience and the ability to ask public questions, follow us here. If you just want the references explained and the histories of a thing, follow us on WordPress.

My Tight Little Agenda

This site will be getting a new theme soon... But first, some actual posts. As this is the first month, we’ll be dealing with fundamentals of Hedwig. A brief biography for the characters and original actors; entries for settings like East Berlin, Junction City; background on venues such as The Belasco Theatre, Hotel Riverview, and the now-defunct Don Hill; and establishing (largely musical) points of reference for what Hedwig talks about within the show.

Once we get a better baseline for how quickly these posts can be researched and well written, we will put together theme weeks (so that the posts aren’t just Fully randomly made) and pre-write them for the weeks that the main mod will be away from the computer.

Right now, here is a list of the posts we have in the works (not to be confused with the 1984 Queen album The Works.)
