HELD OVER: Dead Man's Cell Phone

Jobsite Theater's critically-acclaimed production of Dead Man's Cell Phone, originally slated to close on Sun., June 20, has added performances through June 27.

"A fine production.... Original, unpredictable, poignantly lyrical.... Expect humor, whimsical plot developments, sudden insights and an all-too-justifiable fixation on death. There are several coups-de-theâtre.... The Jobsite team delivers fully with every performance" – Creative Loafing

"The six-person cast, directed by David M. Jenkins, is phenomenal, delivering some of the most uniformly excellent acting you're likely to see on a Tampa stage this year." – St. Petersburg Times

"...an innovative play ... tender yet exasperated, as though [Ruhl's] head-flicking us and asking why we don't do a better job connecting. ...the cast [is] hugely talented, subtle and charming." – Tampa Tribune

The added performances will be:

Fri., June 25 at 8pm

Sat., June 26 at 8pm

Sun., June 27 at 4pm.

Tickets are still priced at $24.50, with a student/senior/military rush for $10 as of 30 minutes to curtain with cash and a valid ID.

Tickets for these additional performances will go on sale Monday morning, and can be purchased by calling 813.229.7827, at the Straz Center Ticket Office or by visiting jobsitetheater.org, where you may also find complete show information.

Amazing show! Amazing cast! Once again a fantastic performance and a great show! – Mike Corrao

In attendance for the preview. Packed house. Crowd was enthusiastic. Play is a light but thought-provoking look at the way we give meaning to our lives (at least that's my take.) All you need to know is that Steve Garland and Katrina Stevenson are awesome and make the show worth seeing just for their performances. – Anthony Salveggi

Had a great time at Dead Man's Cell Phone and at The Independent afterwards. Folks, do yourself a favor and go see the show. Some wonderful stuff and lots of laughs there! – Caroline Jett

Just got back from your most recent production. Really enjoyed it and the cast was great. Everyone did a great job, but is was especially nice to see Steve Garland back. We look forward to seeing the next play and re-subscribing for next season! Keep up the great work – John and Lori Pate
