All Alone Am I A 13 Jackies Production

Written and performed in collaboration with Bob White and Odette Oliver. Concerned with loneliness, confinement and isolation, the performance consisted of the trio of performers (Mars, White and Oliver) tap-dancing in straitjackets to the pop song, All Alone Am I, by Brenda Lee, while divulging each other’s neuroses. Developed in part through an analogy to baseball as presented in the monologue of the male character, the work investigated the traps and limitations that people set up for themselves and others as they seek to seduce or inflict cruelty upon one another.
