At last, the story of THE ORANGE PERSON, told from the perspective of the people who actually experienced it - a celebration of existence, of difference, and of song. From Terlingua, the infamous "ghost town" of the rural southwest Texan desert, a family confronts a medical marvel: an orange baby is born.

With an original book by director/ auteur Jeremy Bloom and vocalist/ performer Brian Rady, THE ORANGE PERSON weaves together classic and original folk, R&B and sacred music with an eclectic cast of storytellers of all ages. THE ORANGE PERSON fuses a unique mix of performative mediums from non-fictional documentary theater to concert to lawn party (be sure to take advantage of flowing bottomless wine, iced tea, and the post-show jam session).

THE ORANGE PERSON features the composing and performing talents of dreamy folk-pop banjo-darling of the Lower East Side Laura Dunn (Laura Dunn & the Ghosts of Xmas Past), the infamous Kirk Siee on upright bass, and a stellar host of vocalists, actors and multi-instrumentalists. Join us as we lift our voices in jubilation and remembrance of THE ORANGE PERSON.
