Josh Radnor and More Set for The Greene Space's INSIDE LOOK: DISGRACED Next Week

On Thursday, September 18 at 7pm, WNYC's Leonard Lopate hosts a behind-the-scenes conversation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play Disgraced with cast members Josh Radnor (How I Met Your Mother), Karen Pittman and Hari Dhillon and playwright Ayad Akhtar.

DISGRACED, which opens on Broadway on October 23rd, 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.
