The Last Days of Judas Iscariot is set in the Court of Hope, across the tracks from Purgatory, where the appeal case of God and the Kingdom of Heaven vs. Judas Iscariot Rockwell is underway. It is being billed as a serio-comic re-examination of the plight and fate of the apostle Judas Iscariot.
The show, directed by Philip Seymour Hoffman, will begin performances at the Public on February 8. Chris McGarry, Mums and Portia will also be featured.
