Leni’s Last Lament

In Leni’s Last Lament, which swept top awards at its one-night-only United Solo Festival in Manhattan last March, Hitler’s controversial filmmaker, Leni Riefenstahl, poses as a misunderstood victim as she attempts to justify and sanitize her notorious past. Set in Leni’s editing room and presented as a macabre, comic cabaret with a live accordionist — the play is a wild ironic ride full of hard-to-believe insights into this provocative figure as she reassembles her life to create a more palatable portrait. Leni’s Last Lament opens on March 15 for Women’s History Month at The Invisible Dog Art Center in Boerum Hill.
