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 theatrical insight into how we memorialize the dead and how it changes us.

Dead Man’s Cell Phone portrays the odyssey of Jean. A woman forced to confront her own assumptions about morality, redemption, and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world.

Ticket prices alone will not cover improvements that will enhance your theater experience. We are coming to you to ask for some help in upgrading some of our audio and lighting equipment. It takes a lot of money just to keep the doors open with rent, royalties, sets, and props, and often critical infrastructure goes unfunded. We have an aging lighting system that needs some attention and an audio mixing board that needs to be replaced sooner rather than later.

Can you help us with a donation to achieve our goal of $1500? As a 501 (C) 3 not for profit organization, donations are fully tax deductible.

With your donation, we can continue to produce quality community theater events like Junie B. Jones Jr., The Wedding Singer, A Few Good Men and Sylvia.
We have a few more shows to present this season and are working on a great 2022-2023 season to be announced soon!
