Gut-busting, in-your-face comedy!



SYNOPSIS
Thom Pain (Based onNothing) is a wry monologue in which an ordinary man, Thom Pain, muses on childhood, yearning, disappointment and loss, cataloguing the eternal agonies of the human condition as he draws his audience into his last-ditch plea for empathy and enlightenment. Think Eric Bogosian with a dash of George Carlin and
Spalding Gray.
