Sarah Ruhl’s Dead Man’s Cell Phone crystallizes the world of
technology, the power of communication and how human beings are
preoccupied to stay in touch all the time with their mobile phones.
Bizarre situations are created in a realistic setting shedding light on
social evils like organ trading. The protagonist of the play, Jean reconnects to her own spirit grasping the idea that life is for the living.
This is done through answering the phone calls of a dead man.
Therefore, juxtaposition is employed to explore how two unrelated
things are linked. This is also done through the use of intertextuality
that gives the audience to compare and contrast between things
