Body of the State is an urgent solo performance piece that explores one person’s pursuit of gender-affirming care, theatricalizing their experience of gender, bureaucracy, community and how it feels to exist in a body that is regulated and legislated by their own government. In Body of the State, the audience is given control of Miller’s performance and body as they wield the familiar and formidable tool of American legislature and healthcare; paperwork.
Body of the State contains references to violence against transgender people, as well as discussions of gun violence and suicide.
