A work about how we memorialize the dead – and how that remembering changes us – it’s the odyssey of a woman forced to confront her own assumptions about morality, redemption, and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world. *Reviews:* “Satire is her oxygen […] In her new oddball comedy, *Dead Man’s Cell Phone, *Sarah Ruhl is forever vital in her lyrical and biting takes on how we behave” ~ *The Washington Post* “Ruhl’s zany probe of the razor-thin line between life and death delivers a fresh and humorous look at the times we live in.” ~ *Variety* “[Ruhl] tackles big ideas with a voice that entertains.” ~ *NPR* “The beguiling new comedy […] blends the mundane and the metaphysical, the blunt and the obscure, the patently bizarre and the bizarrely moving […] [Ruhl] writes surrealist fantasies that happen to be populated by eccentrically real people, comedies in which the surface illogic of dreams is made meaningful – made truthful – by the deeper logic of human feeling.” ~ *The New York Times* Rights secured via Concord Theatricals
