Dead Man's Cell Phone

Dead Man's Cell Phone

By Sarah Ruhl

Streaming only through Nov. 13 - 22, 2020

A cell phone rings. And rings. When the man at the next table doesn’t respond, a frustrated woman sitting nearby picks up his call. A spur-of-the-moment lie leads her down a rabbit hole where suddenly she becomes involved in his surreal and dangerous world. In this comedic comment on modern technology, Pulitzer Prize nominated playwright Sarah Ruhl examines how the cell phone is supposed to keep us connected, but may be the thing that isolates us the most.

“Dead Man’s Cell Phone” is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc., a Concord Theatricals Company.
