Description
In a London psychiatric hospital, an enigmatic patient claims to be the
son of an African dictator - a story that becomes unnervingly
plausible. An incendiary tale of race, madness and a Darwinian power
struggle at the heart of a dying National Health Service, Blue/Orange
premiered at London's Cottesloe Theatre in April 2000 and transferred
to the West End in 2001.
"Joe
Penhall creates as riveting and compelling a new chamber play as we
have seen since Michael Frayn's Copenhagen" - Daily Mail
"Britain's best new play since Michael Frayn's Copenhagen...thrillingly original" - Financial Times
"Funny and irreverent...Penhall's writing is vibrant throughout" - Independent on Sunday
"I
came out of Joe Penhall's new play in a state of hot, black excitement:
emotional, intellectual, moral excitement. How many plays can claim
that much?" - Sunday Times
"Exuberant...Penhall has the gift
of making serious points in a comic manner and of conveying moral
indignation without preaching...Stinging satire" - Guardian
"Provocative, blackly funny...[and] taut with thought-provoking ambiguity" - Independent
