News PHOTO CALL: Sons of the Prophet, With Santino Fontana and Joanna Gleason, Plays Off-Broadway Roundabout Theatre Company's New York City premiere of Stephen Karam's Sons of the Prophet, a play about one man's chronic ill health, plays the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre/Laura Pels Theatre.

Directed by Peter DuBois, the cast features Yusef Bulos (Bill), Jonathan Louis Dent (Vin), Santino Fontana (Joseph), Joanna Gleason (Gloria), Lizbeth Mackay (Mrs. McAndrew), Dee Nelson (Dr. Manor), Chris Perfetti (Charles) and Charles Socarides (Timothy).

"If to live is to suffer, then Joseph Douaihy (Fontana) is more alive than most," according to Roundabout notes. "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."

Here's a look at the show:
