A darkly funny one-man show: Will Eno's Pulitzer Prize–finalist one-man play comes to Javeenbah Theatre as part of the One Person One Acts season.
Thom Pain is just like you, except worse. Armed with a chair, a glass of water and a room full of strangers, he sets out to tell you about his life (a boyhood dog, a bee sting, a love that got away) and keeps getting in his own way. Bleak, very funny and unpredictable, it's a rare chance to see the play Michael C. Hall and Rainn Wilson have performed in the US, live on the Gold Coast.
Performed by Ty Jordan. Directed by Jake Goodall.
Running time approx. 75 minutes.
