Bronco's Kiss Performed with Lillian Allen and Alexandra Webb

A fascination with the O. J. Simpson trial and cars prompted Mars to create this piece which took place in an urban park. Lillian Allen created a non-stop dub-like poem based on the transcripts of the trial, while Alexandra Webb sang random O. J. trial excerpts from inside the white Ford Bronco. Dressed as a campy Marilyn Monroe, Mars moved in slow motion tai chi steps wielding large kitchen knives; applied red lipstick; and kissed the car leaving lipstick traces on its shiny white surface. A haunting soundtrack of didgeridoo and dogs chewing bones emanated from the treetops throughout. At the end of the performance, all three women returned to the car, which was then taken away by a tow-truck.
