Vision

Committed to incubating groundbreaking new works for stage and screen, Apples and Oranges Arts provides storytellers with the tools, mentorship, and resources to bring their visions to life. From the thought-provoking episodic series Earth 3.0 to the innovative virtual reality and live stage musical Winter Lights, we champion projects that push the boundaries of storytelling. By blending emerging technology with time-honored theatrical and cinematic traditions, we create a dynamic space where storytellers can develop, refine, and launch bold new narratives that captivate audiences across multiple platforms.

OUR PROJECTS

EARTH 3.0

A quirky team of higher beings and an unlikely Earthling hero embark on a comedic and transformative journey to redesign Earth, blending advanced technology and quantum spirituality to tackle global challenges and uncover the power of unity in creating a hopeful future.

WINTER LIGHTS

“Winter Lights: A Journey Home” is a holiday musical presented at Discovery Cube Orange County in Santa Ana. The show follows the story of Lumina, a tenacious 17-year-old girl from Santa Ana High School who strives to win a science fair award and secure a scholarship to pursue a STEM degree at UC Irvine. The production features unique characters, including a science fairy and a lovable robot named Jean Luc, crafted from a toaster. Set against the backdrop of the Aurora Borealis, the musical blends hope, resilience, and the magic of discovery, making it a perfect addition to any family’s holiday traditions.

THE CALLING

An immersive virtual reality musical experience, The Calling transports you back to Memphis’ famed Beale Street on March 28, 1968 — the date of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s final march.  The Calling Premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival and was selected to play at Siggraph and AGBO Summer Showcase in 2023.
