Summary

In a time-bending corner of Purgatory called Hope, Judas is on trial for his betrayal of Jesus, his soul left in the balance. Through the testimonies of larger-than-life biblical and historical characters such as Mother Teresa, Sigmund Freud and Satan, Pulitzer Prize winner Stephen Adly Guirgis’ provocative and irreverently funny play forces us to examine our ideas of love, divine mercy, free will and forgiveness, searching for the line between good and evil.

By Stephen Adly Guirgis
Directed by Natsuko Ohama & David Warshofsky
