What It Means

Based on On Being Different by Merle Miller

They say they've broken into the offices of Harper's Magazine and are staging a sit-in.

September 1970, Harper's Magazine publish the article Homo/Hetero: The Struggle for Sexual Identity in which Joseph Epstein states "If I had the power to do so, I would wish homosexuality off the face of the earth".

The Gay Activists Alliance stage a sit-in at the Harper's office. But there are many ways to protest. In his Glass House, hidden in the woods outside Brewster New York, Merle Miller - acclaimed journalist and former editor of Harper's Magazine - sits at his desk and begins to write.

An emotional one-person voyage through history - some personal, some not - What It Means speaks directly to audiences about the importance of standing up for what you believe in, accepting the validity of one's own voice and taking a courageous step onto the platform that is offered to you.

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere stage production at Wilton's Music Hall in October 2023, from The Lot Productions.
