Produced by Pound of Flesh Theatre in association with Pacific Theatre and Neworld Theatre Presented by The Cultch and Rumble Productions as part of the Tremors Festival
Tremors: The Last Days of Judas Iscariot
April 10 – 21, 2012
The Historic Theatre at The Cultch
“The Last Days of Judas Iscariot makes most contemporary plays seem safe, timid and dull, and reminds us of what is missing not only from 99% of our drama but from 99% of our lives – a sense of spirituality and of mystery.” – The Telegraph
Halfway between Heaven and Hell, in a place called Hope, history’s most infamous sinner stands trial. In a court room that’s as much ghetto as gospel, the witnesses are called – Mother Teresa, Pontius Pilate, Sigmund Freud, a foul-mouthed Saint Monica, a high school football coach, a handful of Jesus’ disciples – to decide questions of forgiveness, mercy, and eternal damnation.
Wildly funny and scathingly provocative, this production was a full mounting of Pound of Flesh Theatre and Pacific Theatre’s critically acclaimed staged reading in 2009.
