Bang is a monologue delivered by the apparition of Joan Vollmer, immediately after she was shot by William Burroughs, her common law husband, in Mexico City in 1951. As she waits for the ambulance to arrive, she reflects on her relationship with the famous writer, on the passionate nucleus that launched the Beat movement, and on a murder in that close-knit group of artists, presaging her own death.
We strongly encourage pre-purchasing tickets ahead of your arrival at ZOO, which will help speed up waiting and admission times. Doors typically open 5 minutes before the advertised start time. We operate eTicketing.
Bang is a form of justice for Joan Vollmer and Dan Born and Linda Gaumnitz are to be deeply commended for this. She deserves it.
