You´ll never keep me locked up, white man. This is one nigga you don´t get to keep, white man. Cos I´m gonna bark every time you come near. D´you understand?
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. Blue/Orange was first performed at the Cottesloe Theatre, National Theatre, in April 2000. This edition has been published to coincide with the Young Vic´s revival production in 2016.
