DEAD MAN’S CELL PHONE
by Sarah Ruhl
Directed by Melissa Boussard
Our two-play “Theatre on the Edge” Festival opens with a wildly imaginative comedy by one of the great modern playwrights, Sarah Ruhl. Dead Man’s Cell Phone follows Jean, a museum worker who picks up a ringing cell phone in a café. When she discovers that the cell phone’s owner is now deceased, Jean finds herself on a wild journey through this man’s life – one that involves his widow, his mother and his mistress – and even some possible criminal activities. Funny, unpredictable and thought-provoking, Dead Man’s Cell Phone explores the need for connection in today’s technologically advanced world that only seems to be picking up speed every day.

POTUS: or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive
by Selina Fillinger
Directed by Paige Polcene
One of the most talked about comedies in recent years, Selina Fillinger’s POTUS is a riotous modern-day farce that explores the chaotic world of the White House through the eyes of seven women who work tirelessly to keep the President out of trouble amid a PR disaster. These flawed and fascinating females must risk careers, families, and sanity to manage the situation and keep the President from further embarrassment. POTUS offers a hilarious yet insightful look at women behind the scenes in the political arena. It doesn’t matter if you are a Democrat, Republican, Independent or couldn’t care less about politics – this is MUST SEE theater at its boldest, and the kind of show you’ll be laughing about for days after!
