Play Description:
An incessantly ringing cell phone in a quite 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 quirky, imaginative comic adventure by MacArthur
"Genius" Grant recipient and Pulitzer Prize finalist Sarah Ruhl.
An odyssey of a woman forced to confront her own assumptions about morality, redemption,
and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world.
About the Drama Program
Drama at Lower Columbia College offers courses designed to provide students with an
understanding of the theatre and an appreciation of theatre, acting, technical theatre,
and production experience through performance. Students develop the ability to express
themselves in many ways: acting on stage, seminar discussion, play analysis, review
writing, script interpretation, kinesthetic expression, and technical proficiency
in set, costume, and light design.
One play is presented each quarter during the academic year. Participation is open
to all students, college employees and members of the local community.
Students interested in acting can complete an associate degree or begin studies to
transfer to a baccalaureate program. Drama courses can also be an important supplement
for those who plan to major in the humanities or social sciences.
