TV: Watch Highlights from DISGRACED on Broadway; Opens This Thursday!
The Pulitzer Prize winning play Disgraced by Ayad Akhtar will have its Broadway premiere this fall starring Hari Dhillon (star of the acclaimed London's Bush Theatre production), Gretchen Mol ("Boardwalk Empire"), Karen Pittman (Domesticated) and Josh Radnor ("How I Met Your Mother"). In addition to the Pulitzer Prize, Disgraced has received Obie and Joseph Jefferson Awards. Kimberly Senior, who helmed the two previous US productions, will direct. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
DISGRACED is the story of a successful Muslim-American lawyer and his wife -- an artist influenced by Islamic imagery -- enjoying their comfortable and successful life on New York's Upper East Side. When a co-worker and her husband come to dinner, what begins as polite table conversation explodes, leaving everyone's relationships and beliefs about race and identity in shards.
The design team includes John Lee Beatty (set), Jennifer Von Mayrhauser (costumes), Kenneth Posner(lighting), and Jill DuBoff (sound). Disgraced is produced by The Araca Group and Lincoln Center Theater.
