Sons of the Prophet (NHB Modern Plays)

goes away... Some things are lost; some are found; some are gone forever. Sons of the Prophet ponders this hard truth; it makes us consider the unacceptable' - John Lahr - New Yorker'Devastating and thrilling... by turns grave, poetic, wrenching, wry and madcap, Sons of the Prophet... defies easy categorization. And it confirms [Karam]... as a major voice in American theater' - Vogue'To observe that a play about extreme suffering is also explosively funny might seem absurd. But one of the many soul-piercing truths in Sons of the Prophet, the absolutely wonderful new comedy-drama by Stephen Karam, is that life rarely obeys the rules of dramatic consistency, or, for that matter, fair play... And with unerring sensitivity he finds the sweet spot at which laughing at the horrors of life and feeling compassion for those who must endure them intersect' - Charles Isherwood - New York Times [Publisher's text]
