There’s no dispute, Hugh Sheridan is one of the nicest people anyone could ever hope to meet. On screen and in the theatre, he’s also one of Australia’s finest, and most loved, actors. But in 2020, Hugh became the target of a hate campaign that was so vile it almost broke him. The reason he was viciously attacked defies belief. He dared to do what actors are paid to do: act.

As Tara Brown reports, the controversy arose after he was offered the leading part in the musical stage production of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Hugh considered it the role of a lifetime, but by accepting the part he offended a very angry minority group who made it their mission to brutally cancel him.
