Press Reviews

"Kapil’s writing is hip, sharp and surprising. But Orange also has quieter moments of refined lyricism [...] a unique, sympathetic portrait of a teenage girl on the autism spectrum."
— Star Tribune

"Orange offers audiences moments of laughter, glimpses of tenderness, and a good deal of food for thought about ability and perception."
— Minneapolis Pioneer Press

"Orange is exciting, funny, and compassionate in all the right ways. It’s also complex enough to keep you alert and ready for more the entire time."
— The Orange Curtain Review
