About This Book

"The theatrical equivalent of getting to know the new neighbors—something we had better do if we plan to survive as a civil society" —Michael Feingold, Village Voice

"Sparkling and combustible" (Bloomberg), Disgraced "rubs all kinds of unexpected raw spots with intelligence and humor" (Newsday). "In dialogue that bristles with wit and intelligence, Mr. Akhtar . . . puts contemporary attitudes toward religion under a microscope. . . . Everyone has been told that politics and religion are two subjects that should be off limits at social gatherings. But watching Mr. Akhtar's characters rip into these forbidden topics, there's no arguing that they make for ear-tickling good theater" (New York Times).

"[A] blistering social drama about the racial prejudices that secretly persist in progressive cultural circles." —Marilyn Stasio, Variety

"An engaging snapshot of the challenge for upwardly mobile Islamic Americans in the post-9/eleven age." —Thom Geier, Entertainment Weekly

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama
