Hobo Junction is proud to announce the cast for HORRIBLE, a new comedy by Josh Zagoren...the mastermind behind Hobo Junction and author of the hit show BAD GUYS IN SUITS. HORRIBLE, Hobo Junction's Seventh production is a comedy about love, death and cannibalism. Malcolm Garrish is a doctor with a great deal of patience.
