"Like if your phone is on you’re supposed to be there. Sometimes I like to disappear. But it’s like — when everyone has their cellphones on, no one is there. It’s like we’re all disappearing the more we’re there.”

excerpt from Sarah Ruhl's DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE

 

DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE  |  ASTRONOMICAL SUNSET  |  CIRCLE MIRROR TRANSFORMATION  |  HOMEBODY/KABUL  |  A NUMBER

By Sarah Ruhl

SEPTEMBER 11 - OCTOBER 16, 2010

Previews: September 9 and 10, 2010
Opening Night: September 11, 2010

This unusual and lyrical comedy from playwright Sarah Ruhl (EURYDICE, THE CLEAN HOUSE) follows the story of one woman's loopy odyssey into the lives of others after inheriting the cell phone of a total stranger.  Clinging to her ideas of responsibility, love, and the need to connect with others, DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE is an enticing story about the smallest and most trivial things in life...and how they can be charged with meaning.
