"Dead Man's Cell Phone" By Sarah Ruhl
MONDAY 11 FEBRUARY 2013 5PM-7PM AT ALLIANCE FRANCAISE
Director: Julie Wharton
Producer: Almasi Collaborative Arts
SUMMARY
Jean is innocently sitting at a cafe when a man's cell phone rings. And rings. And keeps on ringing. The man doesn't answer because, as the title suggests, he's dead. Jean, however, does pick up, and when she discovers that the cell phone owner has quietly died in the cafe, she not only dials 911, she keeps his phone in order to keep him alive in a strange yet significant way. She takes messages from the dead man's business associates, friends, family members, even his mistress.
