Depot Play Reading: DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE

The third staged play reading in the Depot Theatre’s new series La Depot Dangereuse is coming up this week:

Wednesday, August 6, at 8:00 pm
Dead Man’s Cell Phone
by Sarah Ruhl

An incessantly ringing cell phone in a quiet café. 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 MacArthur “Genius” Grant recipient and Pulitzer Prize finalist, Sarah Ruhl. A work about how we memorialize the dead—and how that remembering changes us—it is the odyssey of a woman forced to confront her own assumptions about morality, redemption, and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world

Featuring: Emily Abruzzi, Maureen Carlo, Susan Doolittle, Stu Rattan, Kathleen Recchia, and Matt Sorensen
