On Stage Now: "Dead Man's Cell Phone"

   Marshall Theatre Alliance's latest production takes the stage tonight and runs over the next two weeks.
 
   It's the comedy Dead Man’s Cell Phone by Sarah Ruhl.
    It takes the stage at the Francis-Booth Experimental Theatre on Feb. 19 – 22 at 7:30 p.m. and Feb. 27 – March 1 at 7:30 p.m

   You can reserve tickets by calling the Box Office at 304-696-2787.

    Here'
s a synopsis of the play: 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 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.
