The greatest courtroom story ever told
After an epic legal backlog and centuries of red tape, the trial of Judas has finally come up on the docket. Yes that Judas, the great criminal of history, the apostle who betrayed Jesus. Making appearances at the courtroom are eyewitnesses from biblical times, sundry moral experts from the modern age (Sigmund Freud and Mother Teresa among others), and Jesus himself. They rant and argue and debate about nothing less than the nature of guilt, the balance of justice versus mercy, and the price of redemption.
The play is called "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" and it's written by Stephen Adly Guirgis, an alum of the University at Albany who earned the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 2015.
