The Last Days of Judas Iscariot by 2015 Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis follows a wild and exciting trial, set in a court room somewhere between Heaven and Hell.
Performed Without Double or Triple Casting For the First Time, history's most famous double-cross is under the microscope in the provocative and irreverently funny The Last Days of Judas Iscariot. Urban night court in "Hope - a ghetto of purgatory" is the backdrop, with Judas on trial for his betrayal of Christ, his soul left in the balance.
A trove of historic witnesses including Freud, Mother Theresa, Satan and Pontius Pilate deliver their testimony with raw honesty and scathing humor. As the play unfolds we are forced along with them to examine our ideals and ideas of love, divine mercy, free will and forgiveness coupled with the notion that evil may not be the presence of hate but the absence of compassion.
