The Last Days Of Judas Iscariot
by Stephen Adly Guirgis

"A real jaw-dropper. Expressionistic fantasy… raw language and flamboyantly street-savvy characters… [Guirgis’] imagination is dazzling and his command of language downright thrilling."

— Variety

"An extraordinary play… not since Angels in America have I seen a play so unafraid to acknowledge the power of the spirit."

— The Guardian

"The Last Days of Judas Iscariot shares many of the traits that have made Mr. Guirgis a playwright to reckon with in recent years: a fierce and questing mind that refuses to settle for glib answers, a gift for identifying with life’s losers and an unforced eloquence that finds the poetry in lowdown street talk… Mr. Guirgis is a zealous and empathic researcher, and he presents dilemmas of ancient Galilee in terms winningly accessible to the 21st century."

— The New York Times

"One of the most passionate and powerful young playwrights to have come down the theatrical runway… A must for anyone interested in the work of thoughtful and original playwrights."
