“The story is a fast tumble into chaos, into anger, torment, and torture. The actors dive just as deep.“

"Duclos and the actors have combined to bring us real people that we get to deeply feel for as we hang on their every word and action (...) masterful work that will stay with you long after the lights in Faye’s apartment go out."
- Jim Catapano for Arts Independent
"Blood Orange is a creepy foray into grief and loneliness in a world devoid of caring adults, where teenage girls turn to roadkill for solace and escape as they face the trials and tribulations of adolescence."
- Mark Riffin for This Week in New York
