September 2020. San Francisco. An ominous sky.

High school science teacher Amari must let go of her grief while starting a new relationship; her brother, QC, grapples with the realities of long-COVID and his future as an artist; and her student, Alé, is just trying to pay for remote therapy.

Painted with the background of the ongoing pandemic, Black Lives Matters uprisings, and an upcoming election, these interconnected San Franciscans face yet another sobering moment: the day the sky turned orange.

This R&B and pop musical from Julius Rea, Olivia Kuper Harris, and David Michael Ott is a testament to living through the trials of 2020 as well as a compassionate reminder of the importance of caring for our planet, our communities, and ourselves.

Performers: May Ramos, Nina-Sophia Pacheco, Devin Cunningham, Roeen Nooran, Markaila Dyson, Lai-ling Bisset, Jeremy Brooks, Phaedra Tillery-Boughton, Vince Chan
