Blue/Orange
The play is set in a London mental hospital and concerns Christopher, a young black man who has been sectioned for 28 days after behaving strangely in a London park. A young doctor, Bruce, believes Christopher should be kept in the mental hospital longer, suggesting the man is a schizophrenic, but the head consultant Robert, disagrees and insists that the patient should be set free. What ensures is a battle of wills that explores medical ethics, racism, pride and ambition that ultimately leads us to question both the doctors’ motives.
