Christopher has been confined to a psychiatric ward for a month. He wants out. The problem is he still thinks oranges are blue. His doctor, convinced he needs help, wants to section him. The senior consultant thinks it’s all a question of culture: at home in Shepherd’s Bush Christopher will be amongst 'people who think just like him'. And besides, it costs taxpayer money to keep Christopher in care. Race, ethics, sanity and prejudice collide in Joe Penhall’s exquisitely sharp 'state of the nation' classic.
The Olivier and Evening Standard Award winning Blue/Orange is by Joe Penhall, one of this country's most important living playwrights, with theatre credits including Some Voices, Pale Horse and Mood Music, and screen credits from Enduring Love and The Long Firm to the Netflix hit Mindhunter.
