DISGRACED, written by Ayad Akhtar, opened at the Lyceum Theatre, (149 W 45 Street) on October 23. In addition to the Pulitzer Prize, Disgraced received Obie and Joseph Jefferson Awards.

The cast of Disgraced includes Hari Dhillon, Gretchen Mol, Danny Ashok, Karen Pittman and Josh Radnor. Kimberly Senior, who helmed the two previous US productions, directs. The design team includes John Lee Beatty (set), Jennifer von Mayrhauser (costumes), Ken Posner (lighting), and Jill DuBoff (sound). Disgraced is produced by The Araca Group and Lincoln Center Theater.

DISGRACED is the story of a successful Muslim-American lawyer and his wife -- an artist influenced by Islamic tradition -- 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.
