The Roundabout Theatre Company’s Off-Broadway production of Stephen Karam’s new play Sons of the Prophet, at the Laura Pels Theatre, will now begin previews on September 28, two days earlier than previously announced. Peter DuBois will direct the production, which will officially open on October 20, and play a limited engagement through December 23.

The play centers around Joseph Douaihy, and is described as “a refreshingly honest take on how we cope with wounds that just won’t heal, and the funniest play about human suffering you’re likely to see.”

The production stars Tony Award winner Joanna Gleason as Gloria, along with Yusef Bulos (Bill), Jonathan Louis Dent (Vin), Santino Fontana (Joseph), Lizbeth Mackay (Mrs. McAndrew), Dee Nelson (Dr. Manor), Chris Perfetti (Charles), and Charles Socarides (Timothy).

The design team will include Anna Louizos (sets), Bobby Frederick Tilley, II (costumes), Japhy Weideman (lights), and M.L. Dogg (sound).
