An Octoroon Tickets

An Octoroon is a compelling performer whose work sits at the intersection of melodrama and metatheatre, rooted in the adaptation of Dion Boucicault’s The Octoroon. Created by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, a renowned playwright and 2016 MacArthur Fellow who later earned the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for Drama for Purpose, An Octoroon’s performances bring a sharp, insightful reflection on race, storytelling, and theatrical convention. The material has been produced by regional and college theatres with licensing through Concord Theatricals, ensuring accessible, professional productions across the country.

From its world premiere at Soho Rep in New York City (2014) to extended engagements in subsequent seasons, An Octoroon has earned critical attention, including sharing the 2014 Obie Award for Best New American Play with Appropriate. Regional productions have appeared at venues such as The New Hazlett Theater in Pittsburgh (2019), The Fountain Theatre in Los Angeles (2021), and Benchmark Theatre in Colorado (2022). While there is no centralized national tour announced for 2025, performances continue regionally through independent theatres, offering audiences unique, on-the-ground experiences of this provocative work.
