Tim Miller Mentor Performances

Tim Miller Mentees

Performances by Tim Miller, Kamelle Mills, Brigham Mosley & Katie O

Performance Space 122 with support from the National Performance Network Community Fund created a seven month mentorship for three emerging queer performers to work with internationally acclaimed performer and PS122 co-founder Tim Miller.
On Saturday, June 11 see Tim Miller and the artists perform as the culmination of this project.

Tim Miller
Irregular Forms of the Verb To Be

Tim Miller charts the way lives grow and change in most irregular ways with help from outside. As is so often the case, Lederhosen may be involved.

Kamelle Mills
To Bloom

Kamelle Mills takes a look at a set of characters surrounding an adolescent homosexual boy on the verge of discovering who he is.

Kamelle received his BFA in Theatre with an emphasis in Playwrighting at SMU. His first full length play, “Where Pride Rides”, was workshopped in the festivals New Visions, New Voices in Dallas. Kamelle is committed to both Playwrighting and Acting.


Katie O
Whore!

An elegy about sex and sexuality. A fantastical look at a real girl.
The secrets and true stories of a sex worker, a lover, a survivor and an all around whore.

Katie O is a queer sex worker and performance artist originally from San Francisco. She has performed in Radio City Music Hall, subway cars, New York Theatre Experiment, out of third story windows, PS122, bathrooms, HiChristina! Gallery, basements, BDSM clubs and stairwells
all over the fine state of New York. She likes Lady Gaga, cheese and being sentimental. Follow her on www.feticheantoinette.tumblr.com


Brigham Mosley
Oh Whatta Beautiful Mornin’

Young, glittery Brigham must return to his dusty Oklahoma roots after the death of his grandfather. A funny, grief-filled examination of ancestry and hierarchy for the queer prodigal son. Dream ballets included.

Brigham Mosley is a young performer/playwright from southwest Oklahoma. His work has been produced in New York, Chicago, and Dallas. For more information and to contact Brigham go to www.brighammosley.com

Knead

tim miller workshop

KNEAD

An original performance work created in collaboration with the performers with workshop nudges from Tim Miller

“This week-long performance workshop I have led here at PS122 has been an exciting and charged exploration into creating original performance work from our lives, dreams, obsessions, peeves, memories and desires. It has been a great pleasure and inspiration to create our tribe for a short time and jump into this original ensemble work KNEAD.

The search for the narratives of the body is a crucial beginning to knowing ourselves and can be a juicy motor for creating original performance material. I want to thank the artists for diving in so bravely and being ready to dig that extra foot (or mile!) into these gnarly, moist and tricky terrains!”

Lay of the Land

Lay of the Land


“Passionate, witty, endearing, furious, and fabulous!” – Critic’s Pick, Backstage

“A vivid, must-see achievement.” – David Nichols, The Los Angeles Times

Performance Space 122 co-founder Tim Miller’s sharp-knifed, saucy 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! Lay of the Land is a “lay” in all kinds of ways: a sex-assignation, a queer citizenship map, and of course a narrative ballad with a recurrent refrain! (Miller’s favorite way-down-the-list definition for “lay”!).

Supported in part by the National Performance Network

Tim Miller’s 1001 Beds

1001 Beds

“Miller has matured without losing either his inquisitive ardor or wicked humor. the nonpareil explorer of self and spirit”
– David Nichols, LOS ANGELES TIMES

Join Tim Miller in his hotel room during his two-week stay at Performance Space 122. Co-founder of P.S. 122 and Highways Performance Space in Santa Monica, member of the “NEA 4,” and internationally acclaimed performance artist, Miller checks in with his latest critical achievement based on his brand new book.

From a gay teen’s head-on collision with life in a sleazy hotel across the street from the Hollywood Bowl to an ecstatic vision of a sex-positive future on a mattress in a police holding cell, Tim Miller takes us on a raucous and rowdy, kinky and funny journey through all the beds he has been in – and will be – during his fiercely lived adventures in love, politics and art.

Approximate running time: 70 minutes

US

Fast, funny and furious, Tim Miller’s one-man show Us ricochets between Miller’s love affair since childhood with Broadway musicals and an exploration of gay marriage, exile and the injustices lesbian and gay people face. Nominated for a 2005 New York Drama Desk Award for Best Solo performance, Us rethinks the American musical as inspiration for radical politics and queer identity.
