Isherwood liked it:

“Sons of the Prophet,” commissioned and produced by the Roundabout Theater Company, where Mr. Karam’s “Speech & Debate” was a hit in its smallest theater several seasons ago, is the first important new play of the fall season. I will be very much surprised (albeit pleasantly) if it is bettered.

Well deserved. Santino is a marvel.

He didn't like it. He loved it. As did I. A deeply moving, funny play that has a lot to say, and does it in such a way as to be completely accessible. Add to that extraordinary performances (just how good can Fontana be? It's not fair!) and perfect direction and you have an absolutely fabulous night in the theatre.

Agreed. It's a marvelous production of a marvelous play. Hopefully other critics felt likewise.

It bogles my mind that Ishy also liked Relatively Speaking on the same press date.

Sons of the Prophet review is well deserved. But Relatively Speaking? One of the worst theater experiences I had in years. Scary that Ishy might be just bi-polar.

Not to mention his rant about Rapp whose Dreams of Flying etc. is a lot worthier than the dreadful Relatively Speaking.
