He is perhaps best known for writing, directing, and starring in the award-winning theatrical production and film Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001). His other feature film directorial credits include the improv-based Shortbus (2006), the 2013 film Rabbit Hole starring Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart, and How to Talk to Girls at Parties (2017). He has also directed episodes of GLOW and Nurse Jackie, among other television productions. With extensive acting experience on Broadway, he has appeared on numerous series including Mozart in the Jungle, Shrill, The Good Fight, and Yellowjackets. In 2022, he portrayed Joe Exotic on the Peacock miniseries Joe vs. Carole. He has also written and directed two fictional podcast series (which he calls “audio cinema”): the autobiographical musical Anthem: Homunculus (2019), starring himself, Glenn Close, Cynthia Erivo, Patti Lupone, Denis O’Hare, and Laurie Anderson; and Cancellation Island starring Holly Hunter, which will be released in 2025.
