*Finalist for the 2007 Pulitzer Prize*

"I sell oranges, balls of sun. You eat them in sections like a heart torn from the spine..."

Time: 1955. Place: Boonville, California. Outcast for her clairvoyance and her lack of family, Bulrusher finds out how much she doesn't know when she falls for a stranger from Alabama. But will this visitor open up her insular world, or destroy it? Bulrusher voyages toward self-discovery in a town where the realities of race are submerged in water, and love keeps the company of redwoods. Bulrusher was a finalist for the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in Drama.

Bulrusher runs 140 mintues. There will be one ten-minute intermission.

Bulrusher received its World Premiere by Urban Stages, NYC 2006. Frances Hill, Artistic Director / Sonia Koslova, Managing Director
