An incessantly ringing cell phone in a quiet cafe. 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 Pultizer Prize finalist, Sarah Ruhl, author of the The Clean House and Eurydice. Do we memorialise the dead and how does that remembering change us? Here is a woman forced to confront her assumptions about morality, redemption and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world.
