The Pulitzer Prize winning play Disgraced by Ayad Akhtar had its Broadway premiere last night, October 23, 2014, 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"). BroadwayWorld's Richar Ridge was on the red carpet to chat with the show's guests before the curtain went up. Check out interviews with Julia Murney, Tom Kitt, Tony Danza, Judith Light and more below!

In addition to the Pulitzer Prize, Disgraced has received Obie and Joseph Jefferson Awards. Kimberly Senior, who helmed the two previous US productions, directs.

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.
