Orange at Mixed Blood Theatre

Orange opens November 10th at the Mixed Blood Theatre.  Tickets are available for purchase but you can also see this show for FREE with their Radical Hospitality program.  The show runs through December 4, 2016.

On the eve of a family wedding Leela, a young woman on the autism spectrum, sneaks off with her cousin on a joyride through Orange County. ORANGE chronicles Leela’s adventures over the course of one ill planned night full of detours, thrilling heights, mythic encounters, a nine-year-old villain, and the search for a perfect orange. A soulful and hilarious exploration of youth, fearlessness, family, and difference, ORANGE navigates the cusp between childhood and adulthood.

Mixed Blood Artistic Director Jack Reuler directs this inventive coming-of-age tale. Presented on a corridor stage and flanked by projected illustrations, the Swiss army knife of a set fluidly transforms from an OC beach to the top of a billboard, taking the audience on a journey inside the mind of a singular young woman.
