Drama Desk Award-winner Will Eno, the first writer to complete the Residency 5 program, returns to Signature for his first Legacy production with
Thom Pain (based on nothing), directed by Oliver Butler (Obie and Lortel Award-winning
The Open House) and starring Golden Globe Award-winner Michael C. Hall (“Dexter,” “Six Feet Under,”
The Realistic Joneses). Called “a small masterpiece” by
The New York Times and “one of the best monologues I’ve ever seen” by
The Guardian, this surreal and very real one-man show follows Thom Pain as he desperately, and hilariously, tries to save his own life…or at least make it into something worth dying for.
"Riveting and bedeviling! Michael C. Hall is mesmerizing."
- Frank Scheck,
The Hollywood Reporter
"A searing meditation on the meaning of life."
- Marilyn Stasio,
Variety
"Four stars! Time Out recommended!"
- Helen Shaw,
Time Out New York
"A thrilling tour-de-force!"
