Will a man who speaks nine languages ever learn to communicate with his wife? Will the last two speakers of a soon-to-be dead language break their vow of silence? The lives of five people are imaginatively woven together as they discover that no matter how many words they can speak, it’s the heart’s language that matters most.
A fable about the limits of language in matters of the heart.

John and his daughter Caitlyn are birders. As they scan the skies over their backyard in suburban Maryland looking for elusive birds, years go by. Relationships begin and end. Children grow up and parents age. This lyrical and endearing family portrait unfolds in delicate, detailed layers like the scattered leaves of each passing year.
Binoculars. Birds. A Baltimore backyard.
“…[A] beautifully crafted… lyrical, funny, and painful play that should be on your must-see list.” – MD Theatre Guide

| | Dead Man's Cell Phone (CP2 Mini-Festival #1)
By Sarah Ruhl
A beguiling surrealist comedy
Directed by Kit Colbourn
October 2026
Evening - Saturday, October 3, 8pm
Matinee - Sunday, October 4, 2pm
A comedy about how we remember the dead – and how that memorialization changes us. It is the journey of a woman forced to confront her presumptions about isolation in a technological society. Everything we thought we knew, everything we thought was dead, can be uncovered, re-discovered, and brought to life again.
A ringing cell phone in a quiet café. A stranger at the next tablet. And a dead man-with a lot of loose ends
"Satire is her oxygen [...] In her oddball comedy, Sarah Ruhl is forever vital in her lyrical and biting takes on how we behave." – The Washington Post
Dead Man’s Cell Phone is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals, on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. concordtheatricals.com
