Thom Pain: Based On Nothing

Performed by Peter Knox. Directed by Ron Miller
He's just like you, except worse. He is trying to save his life, to save your lifein that order. In his quest for salvation, he'll stop at nothing, be distracted by nothing, except maybe a piece of lint, or the woman in the second row.

"Thom Pain (based on nothing)" by Will Eno was a 2005 Pulitzer Prize nominee for Drama. This one man show is a journey into the ruminations of a man suffering life's mundane tragedies. Drawing portraits of his life experiences yet concluding nothing from them this lonely figure vamps on the "what ifs" of his life. Eno's extended monologue is original, challenging,and deftly darkly comical. Acted by Peter Knox and directed by Ron Miller Will Eno's "Thom Pain"will be presented over the course of three nights Oct. 17,18, and 19 at the Mix Theatre in Ypsilanti, MI. ---------
