BY SARAH RUHL. How much could someone learn about you if they found your cell phone - and started answering your calls? From the lyrical author of The Clean House comes this oddly mythic love story in which a lonely woman answers a stranger's cell phone and finds herself the unwitting guardian of his memory. Traveling literally to hell and back, Ruhl's quirky comedy is set amidst a world where technology is swallowing our souls, grieving is more complicated than we think, and everyone is desperate to make connections. WORLD PREMIERE.

Directed by Rebecca Bayla Taichman, featuring Rick Foucheux, Naomi Jacobson, Sarah Marshall, Jennifer Mendenhall, Bruce Nelson & Polly Noonan.
