RALEIGH LITTLE THEATRE & ACTOR’S COMEDY LAB TO CO-PRODUCE
Dead Man’s Cell Phone – Jan. 20-Feb. 5, 2012
In a quiet cafe a cell phone rings. And rings. And rings, until the stranger at the next table has had enough. She confronts the owner of the cell phone, only to discover that he’s, well…he’s dead. She begins to answer his calls and suddenly finds herself enmeshed in his life and family. Unfortunately, the dead guy has quite a number of shady loose ends. This surreal comic fantasy traces one woman’s accidental journey from the quiet cafe to the afterlife and back.
The cast features some RLT regulars, as well as some newer faces, including Morrisa Nagel in the role of Jean, Stanley Amditis as Gordon/Dwight; Kate Tonner as Mrs. Gottlieb; Tracey Phillips as Hermia; Amy Nasiatka as The Other Woman, and Amber Ivie Hayles, Heather Shinpaugh, Lee King and Hannah Lee as “The Crowd.”
This delightful and delicate fantasy is full of brilliant insights into the way technology transforms our lives. This zany probe of the razor-thin line between life and death delivers a fresh and humorous look at the times we live in. And endearing play, which touches your hearts, and yet challenges your mind, will be performed in RLTs Gaddy-Goodwin Theatre with General Admission seating.
