New York City
An incendiary tale of race, madness and power- winner of England’s Olivier Award, Critics’ Circle Award and Evening Standard Award for Best Play. Blue/Orange unfolds over the course of 24 hours in a London psychiatric hospital where a young, Afro-Carribean man claims to be the son of an African dictator. Psychiatrists from different generations consult and their conflicting diagnoses explode into a three-way struggle about race, class, ethics, mental illness and human isolation.
