Description

An unexceptional woman in a quiet cafe, exasperated by the incessant ringing of an abandoned cell phone, confiscates it and thereby inherits the life of its owner, who happens to be dead. 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".

Reviews

"Ms. Ruhl's work... blends the mundane and the metaphysical, the blunt and the obscure, the patently bizarre and the bizarrely moving" New York Times"
