Broadway hit comes to Canberra!Lighten up your heavy work week with an offbeat romantic comedy with a suite of quirky characters and bizarre twists! This hilarious story stems from the imagination for a Pulitzer Prize finalist, Sarah Ruhl.
Jean just wants a peaceful moment in a café sipping her coffee, but the man next to her won’t answer his phone. After it rings three times in a row Jean has had enough. She answers the call. Then she discovers why he is incommunicado… he’s dead.
Suddenly Jean is entwined in the lives of his grieving friends and family while uncovering a whole lot of mysterious loose ends that need to be tied up. Jean finds herself going on an unexpected journey in which she aims to make other people’s lives just a little bit better.
Come and see Dead Man’s Cell Phone at the Canberra REP, straight from Broadway, about whether our phones connect us or drive us apart. This intriguing comedy is about something we can all relate to… that dreaded love/ hate relationship with technology.
