Sons of the Prophet

By Stephen Karam, Directed by Peter DuBois

Sons of the Prophet is the New York premiere of Stephen Karam’s brutally funny new play about a Lebanese family in PA in crisis.

In April 2011, it will have its world premiere at Huntington Theatre Company, Boston, directed by Peter DuBois (Artistic Director) by special arrangement with Roundabout. The fall Roundabout production will be produced in association with the Huntington. Stephen Karam is the author of Speech & Debate, the first production from the Roundabout Underground.
