  • Sat 1/14, 8:00pm

Open Eye Figure Theatre proudly hosts
“Lay of the Land” by Tim Miller

Lay of the Land is Tim Miller’s saucy, sharp-knifed look at the State of the Queer Union during a time of trial! Careening from his sexy misadventures performing in 45 States, to Marriage Equality street protests, to the electoral assaults on gay folks all over the country, to his life as a grade-school flag monitor, to choking on cheap meat caught in his 10 year old gay boy’s throat, Lay of the Land friskily gets at that feeling of gay folks being perpetually on trial, on the ballot, and on the menu!

Performances
January 13 & 14 at 8pm | General Admission $18 Student $12

Both performances followed by a Q&A with the Artist. This show contains adult content.

“Tim Miller sings that song of the self which interrogates, with explosive, exploding, subversive joy and freedom, the constitution and borderlines of selfhood. You think you don’t need to hear such singing? You do! You must!” — Tony Kushner, author of Angels in America

“Lean, personal and deceptively canny…the reason LAY OF THE LAND endears is that Mr. Miller is not only self-aware, but is also the rare self-involved, political performance artist whom you wouldn’t mind being stuck sitting next to on a subway train.” — New York Times
