A wildly imaginative and oddball dark romantic comedy, Dead Man’s Cell Phone is the odyssey of a woman forced to confront her assumptions about morality, redemption, and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world. Dead Man’s Cell Phone was written by MacArthur “Genius” Grant recipient and Pulitzer Prize finalist Sarah Ruhl. A thought-provoking work about our reliance on technology, and how we memorialize the dead – and how that remembering changes us.
Dead Man’s Cell Phones features Erin Barker as the lead character “Jean”, with actors Kevin Coleman as Gordon, Jonathan Chenjeri as Dwight, Sally-Ann Palcovich as Mrs. Gottleib, Cheyenne Windish as Hermia, Robyn Sparkes as The Stranger/The Other Woman, and “The Angels” Zack Wanzer and Samantha Gregory. Supporting the cast behind the scenes are Justin Barker as Stage Manager, Samantha Gregory as choreographer, Robyn Sparkes as Producer, Clark Olding sound design/projections, Andrew Sparkes lighting design, Jared and Naomi McCLeve and Mark Neill set design and construction, Heidi Neill, and many many others-Thank you!
We hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
The Cast & Crew!
