I'm here to crowd source, so thank you to anyone who takes the time to reply.
I'm visiting NYC soon, and I remember seeing a few plays on here mentioned that star PWDs. I know one was Cost of Living which I believe has ended.
Does anyone know of any still playing?

There was some guy on here who used to talk quite a bit about plays. He would probably know but I don't remember his name. I heard the Book of Mormon is pretty good, but the show maybe be retired.
Be careful in New York though there's this story going around about random homeless men punching unsuspecting women in the face.

Suffs just began previews on Broadway at the Music Box Theatre and there is an ambulatory wheelchair user (Jenna Bainbridge) in the cast!

Michael Patrick Thornton (A Doll’s House, Macbeth) and Ali Stroker (DeafWest production of Spring Awakening, Tony winner for Oklahoma) are probably the best-known.

The only PWD Broadway actor I know by name is Ali Stroker, I know her one, because of the shear amount of attention she got for her role in Oklahoma, and two, because I’m a jazz musician composer who’s life is involved in performance music. Good luck in your search. Ciao…

Don't know of any shows currently on that discuss disability, but "Cost of Living" "Dark Disabled Stories" and "Teenage Dick" where all amazing shows in the past few years in NYC that fit the bill.
