Disgraced

Closed April 17, 2016

As much as "Disgraced" is a play about the potential tensions between old faiths and the modern world, it also dramatizes the complexity of identity, the interior tug of war between the culture into which people are born and the culture they claim as the

Why See Disgraced?

Plays

Pulitzer Prize Winning Drama

Examining issues of racial prejudice and assimilation following the attacks of September 11th, Disgraced is a powerful and tightly woven piece from playwright and screenwriter Ayad Akhtar. Taking place over the course of one night, it centers on a Manhattan dinner party that descends into acrimony over rumours of the host's fundamentalist leanings.

Awarded the Pultizer Prize for Drama in 2013, Disgraced arrives in Toronto following glowingly received runs in New York and London. Playing as part of the Off-Mirvish season, this Robert Ross Parker directed production marks the play's first ever staging in Canada, and stars Raoul Bhaneja and Birgitte Solem.

What is Disgraced About?

The setting is a Manhattan dinner party, hosted by successful lawyer Amir Kapoor and his artist wife Emily. Despite his reservations, Amir has recently become involved in the controversial case of a local imam, who has been arrested on charges of financing terrorism. The topic is brought up over dinner by his work collegue Jory, who is there with her husband Isaac, and the night's conversation soon turns into a heated and increasingly angry debate over racial prejudice and religious doctrine.
