    As a person with a disability, I truly appreciated that this was written from the perspective of someone with autism. Her adventure with her cousin who is trying to take advantage of her disability to get out of her familial obligations and run off with her boyfriend is true to form and painful to watch as it unravels. There are wonderful emotional arcs for all of the characters. This is a great play to put on stage!

    Orange is a story told with incredible creativity and wonder. I was hooked from the moment I met Leela. Having her perspective be the way we experience this play gave me access to the world like I never imagined. Orange is crafted with care and detail and it gives me hope for what the theatre could be like. This is an amazing play.
