Disgraced by Ayad Akhtar

Disgraced by Ayad Akhtar

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama

From the author of Homeland Elegies, a sparkling and combustible play (Bloomberg) about identity in America after September 11.

Everyone has been told that politics and religion are two subjects that should be off-limits at social gatherings. But watching these characters rip into these forbidden topics, there's no arguing that they make for ear-tickling good theater. --New York Times
