"A ferocious comedy [with] high-powered verbal brutality" says The New York Times about this surprise London hit. Two British psychiatrists battle over the diagnosis of an elusive and electrifying patient who claims to be the son of an infamous African dictator. With their jobs on the line, the doctors hurl accusations of racism and careerism, revealing their complicity in the deterioration of the mental health establishment. BLUE/ORANGE exposes the astounding arrogance of the "white" power structure in determining the future of less fortunate minorities.
"Scott Greer's intense portrayal... is so passionate and rash." -- Philadelphia Inquirer
"Johnnie Hobbs, III... is outstanding." -- Philadelphia Inquirer
"Tim Moyer's skillful performance reveals that under the agreeable facade, Robert is a Machiavellian manipulator and a racist to boot." -- Philadelphia Inquirer
Featuring Tim Moyer, Scott Greer, and Johnnie Hobbs, III.
A co-production with Act II Playhouse.
