The Raven Performing Arts Theater

By Sarah Ruhl 
Directed by Diane Bailey
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.
Dates &amp; Times: May 10 7:30pm, May 11 7:30pm, May 12 2:00pm, May 16 7:30pm, May 17 7:30pm, May 18 7:30pm, May 19 2:00pm, May 24 7:30pm, May 25 7:30pm, May 26 2:00pm 
Admission: Adults: $25; Student w/ID: $10; Special Value Thursday Performance: Pay What You Can
*Doors open 30 minutes before showtime. COVID vaccinations and N95 face masks are recommended but no longer required to see performances at the Raven. See the homepage for information on measures the Raven has implemented to improve air filtration and ventilation inside the theater.
