Fast, funny and furious, Tim Miller’s new show Us ricochets between Miller’s love affair since childhood with Broadway musicals to an exploration of gay marriage, exile and the injustices lesbian and gay people face in the United States. Nominated for a 2005 New York Drama Desk Award for Best Solo performance, Us takes us on a whirlwind journey that re-thinks the American Musical as inspiration for radical politics and queer identity. "As a rallying cry for gay rights, Tim Miller's "Us'' contains a sweet-spirited, honest and seriously funny commentary on the power of popular art to shape people's moral, social and sexual development. Miller is, as always, a frisky and charismatic performer (New York Times)." TICKETS: $22 general admission; $17 members, students, teachers (PreK-12), professional artists & seniors; $8 for children 17 & under – unless noted otherwise.
