FMU Theatre – Dead Man's Cell Phone

Dead Man’s Cell Phone by Sarah Ruhl Francis Marion University Theatre Director: Glen Gourley October 21, 2026; 7:30pm An incessantly ringing cell phone in a quiet café. A stranger at the next table who has had enough of it. A dead man with a lot of loose ends. Dead Man’s Cell Phone is an eccentric comic-noir about Jean, a woman who follows a ringing cell phone down a rabbit hole of adventure into a mysterious man’s life. “Satire is her oxygen […] In her new oddball comedy, Dead Man’s Cell Phone, Sarah Ruhl is forever vital in her lyrical and biting takes on how we behave.” – The Washington Post Tickets are available to FMU students, faculty, and staff at no charge upon showing an FMU ID.
