"GLORY BOX"
A Performance by Tim Miller

Centre for Film and Theatre, York University
Free Admission

GLORY BOX is a funny, sexy and charged exploration of Tim Miller's  
journeys through the challenge of love, marriage equality, and the  
struggle for immigration rights for gay Americans and their partners  
from other countries. (Why so many of US come to Canada!) From  
Miller's hilarious grade school playground battles over wanting to  
marry another boy to the harrowing travails of being in a bi-national  
relationship with his Australian husband, GLORY BOX leads the audience  
on an intense and humorous journey into the complexity of the human  
heart that knows no boundary. GLORY BOX (the term that Australians use  
for "hope chest") conjures an alternative site for the placing of  
memories, hopes and dreams of gay people's extraordinary potential for  
love.

"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
