SYNOPSIs
Based on a short story originally published by McSweeney’s, Yeah, So I've got this Searing Pain is a fevered and joyful satire on sharing and oversharing. Our jester’s manic monologue builds and grows majestic as he seeks the true nature of his pain—stacking up symbolism, metaphor, simile and sound to make it clear to the world: This Is An Amazing Pain.
