Dead Man’s Cell Phone at Ring Theatre (February 7-8, 13-15 at 7:30pm; February 9, 16 at 2:00pm)

“Dead Man’s Cell Phone” by Sarah Ruhl

Directed by Brook Davis, Associate Director, Center for Literacy Education

When Sarah Ruhl’s Dead Man’s Cell Phone premiered in 2007, the play questioned our connections, our disconnections, and how our lives have changed as we navigate a piece of technology that follows us everywhere, all the time.  In 2025, that examination is even more profound.

After Jean answers and keeps answering a dead man’s cell phone, she stumbles into a complicated world of grand discoveries and adventure. 

Join us for a whimsical look at humanity, technology, and the life-altering importance of a good bowl of lobster bisque.

Shows are February 7-8 and 13-15 at 7:30pm, and February 9 and 16 at 2:00pm.

Recording and photography are not allowed. No late admission
