Theater: Off-Off Broadway
Alfred Preisser and Randy Weiner, both vets of the Classical Theatre of Harlem, have created a spectacular vision of the titular dictator's final night. We imagine the orgiastic circus procession of performers, wrestlers, animals, freaks, show girls and party guests will be a little like the bunkered Nazis at the end of Downfall, suddenly aware of their inescapable and fast-approaching doom, getting naked and wasted in one last sensual binge. Self-abandonment, like power, is totally hot, so when the powerful cut loose, shit gets sexy.
