Dead Man's Cell Phone

Curious Theatre Company kicks off its 13th Season on September 11 with Sarah Ruhl’s DEAD MAN’S CELL PHONE, directed by Dee Covington. The cast features Paragon Theatre ensemble member Emily Paton Davies, Denver veteran actor Kathryn Gray, and includes William Hahn, C. Kelly Leo and newcomers (to the Curious stage) Scott Bellot and Trina Magness. Designers include Curious favorites such as Brian Freeland, Michael Duran and Shannon McKinney.

This unusual and lyrical comedy from playwright Sarah Ruhl (EURYDICE, THE CLEAN HOUSE) follows the story of one woman's loopy odyssey into the lives of others after inheriting the cell phone of a total stranger. Clinging to her ideas of responsibility, love, and the need to connect with others, DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE is an enticing story about the smallest and most trivial things in life...and how they can be charged with meaning.
