The aim of ‘King For A Day” is to challenge the detrimental attachment society has for money. It forces the audience to challenge their own perceived interconnection between value and money.
From when Ed was ignored as a homeless person to suddenly being recognized and garnering attention after changing into a suit, Ed’s transformation and eventual treatment by people are visual metaphors of how Ed is treated differently.
With a heavy focus on highlighting the beauty of hedonism, we hope to encourage the audience to question the heavy capitalist society they currently dwell in and decide what factors they believe suit their needs.
