Sons of the Prophet (2013)

By Stephen Karam
Directed by Anna Johnson

Finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Sons of the Prophet is a refreshingly honest take on how we cope with wounds that just won’t heal.

With unexplained chronic pain and the fate of his reeling family on his shoulders, Joseph’s health, sanity, and insurance premium are on the line. In an age when modern medicine has a cure for just about everything, Sons of the Prophet is the funniest play about human suffering you’re likely to see.
