Austrian-Iranian director Arash T. Riahi opens the German-language premiere of Disgraced, a Pulitzer Prize-winning new play by Ayad Akhtar; last year’s Broadway run earned the production a Tony nod. An American realist play about Islamophobia and identity politics fresh from Broadway isn’t your standard Berlin fare. Maybe it should be: Akhtar’s portrait of post 9/11 life for Muslim Americans is sharp as hell. Presented with English surtitles.
