WEDNESDAY reimagines the film Dog Day Afternoon as a queer-fantasia where psychological realism meets pop soap opera at a cabaret club or a Speculative Dance-Theatre Documentary. In the show, members of Raja Feather Kelly’s dance-theatre-visual media company, the feath3r theory, take on the role of journalists in search of the real and true motivations behind the bank robbery in Dog Day Afternoon—money for a sex change [sic]. WEDNESDAY dismantles Dog Day Afternoon by recentering the story on a fantasy in which Liz Eden—for whom the character Leon in Dog Day Afternoon is loosely based—is the protagonist and the reason why the character Sonny conspires to rob a bank. In this performance, Eden stars in a cabaret act called “The Garden of Eden,” inspired by Carl Orff’s “Carmina Burana” at the nightclub, Wednesdays. This fantastical spin on the true-life saga is inspired by numerous articles that speculate Eden’s dream of writing a book, owning a discotheque, and performing a cabaret act at a nightclub—which she never got to do, even after receiving what is speculated to be somewhere between $25,000 and $50,000 for her role in inspiring Leon’s story line in Dog Day Afternoon. In this speculative documentary dance theatre queer-fantasia, comedy reveals tragedy in a “Theatrum Mundi” in which music, movement, and speech are inseparable.
