DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE

By Sarah Ruhl

What the reviewers are saying...

"Dead on"
"At last, a play and production that have the electrifying immediacy not to
be found on any kind of screen."
Keith Joseph, Eunuch in the Harem

"This production is amusing and engrossing, featuring an absolutely stunning
bit of acting in the lead role.  In the linchpin role of Jean, Tracee
Patterson is a marvel."
Christine Howey, Scene Magazine 



Directed by Scott Miller 

An incessantly ringing cell phone in a quiet cafe.  A stranger at the next
table who has had enough.  And a dead man-with a lot of loose ends.  So
begins DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE, a wildly imaginative new comedy by MacArthur
"Genius" Grant recipient and Pulitzer Prize finalist, Sarah Ruhl, author of
THE CLEAN HOUSE and EURYDICE.  A work about how we memorialize the dead-and
how that remembering changes us.  It is the odyssey of a woman forced to
confront her own assumptions about morality, redemption, and the need to
connect in a technologically obsessed world.  

Please note:   Seating capacity has been reduced by 50 seats for this
production.
