WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
If to live is to suffer, then Joseph Douaihy (Santino Fontana) is more alive than most. 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 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. Starring Joanna Gleason.

However, the play's abundant humor is balanced by a deeply felt empathy for the play's central character, who is brought vividly to life by the extraordinary Santino Fontana.
The actor portrays Joseph Douaihy, a Lebanese-American gay man living in Pennsylvania who is dealing with a host of problems, including the recent death of his father and his own declining health due to a mysterious illness that[...]
