dailytitan.com The Student Voice of California State University, Fullerton Preview performing arts’ talent A guide to the fall season of theatre and dance performances

JAMES BEAN Daily Titan

Just steps away from your after- noon chemistry class, the Cal State Fullerton Department of Theatre and Dance works day and night to bring stories to life in its eclectic set of on-campus theaters. This season is packed with familiar and not-so- familiar stories that the actors, de- signers, writers and directors want to share with the world.

Dead Man’s Cell Phone The first story on the roster is Dead Man’s Cell Phone by Sarah Ruhl. The play follows a woman named Jean who is eating at a café when a man’s cell phone interrupts her lunch. In a fit of fury, she confronts the man only to discover that he is dead. She an- swers his cell phone and finds herself swept into the man’s former life. “(The title) is kind of literal,” said Abby Hankins, a junior musical theater major. “The more you’re (in technology), the less you’re here in our world.”
