Dead Man's Cell Phone

There's 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 Pulitzer Prize finalist Sarah Ruhl, author of The Clean House and Eurydice

Dead Man's Cell Phone is about how we memorialize the dead and how that remembering changes us

It is also the odyssey of a woman forced to confront her own assumptions about morality, redemption, and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world
