An incessantly ringing cell phone in a quiet café. 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
playwright Sarah Ruhl, recipient of a MacArthur
“Genius” Grant and Pulitzer Prize finalist for her
play The Clean House. 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.

Directed by Susi Thompson, DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE will
be the 4th play in the new Griffith/Adler Actor's
Series.  

Performances will be May 13, 14, 20 & 21 at 7:30 p.m.
