Disgraced
Pitch-perfect cast…sensationally gripping! Akhtar's riveting play thrusts us into an escalating global debate, humanizing the way we see the world.
Critic's Choice
An intelligent, gripping and sensational drama about Muslim assimilation in America.
2013 Pulitzer Prize Winner
Identity, heritage, and passion collide in this riveting exploration of the stories we tell our friends, the secrets we tell our lovers, and the lies we tell ourselves to find our place in the American Dream. Ayad Akhtar’s 2013 Pulitzer Prize-winning play Disgraced—a potently funny tale of big-city aspiration and cultural assimilation—dares to face the truth hiding just below the deception. Don't miss this 90-minute thrill ride of emotions and ideas.
Brilliant…grab some close friends, see the show, then open a bottle of wine, and argue about what it all means.
