Indiana Business Journal "Strange and Rewarding Trip at the Phoenix"
"Horan makes clear early that this is no traditional biographical play. It jumps time, offers up characters from Lilly’s hallucinations, and breaks the fourth wall with seemingly reckless abandon. Some of this is wildly funny—but it’s funny with the purpose of taking us into Lilly’s mind, which proves a really interesting place to be."
TYPHOID MARY
Nuvo “Typhoid Mary at Phoenix Theatre”
"Typhoid Mary, explores history as something that overlaps the present rather than something that only happened in the past, and as something that merges the factual with the magical or dreamlike. Horan’s perhaps trademark approach is disconcerting but invigorating and ultimately satisfying."
Indiana Business Journal “Typhoid Mary at Phoenix Theatre”
"Like the doctor whose monologue opens his new play, playwright Tom Horan clearly believes in medicinally adding jokes to ease some of life’s brutal realities."
