The Last Days of Judas Iscariot
Culminating in a sold out 4 show run at the Robert Moss Theater at Playwrights Horizons NYC, Frayed Knot Collective collaborated with producers Max Fermin and Pablo Cardona and directors Matan Hamam and Dilara Naska to bring this legendary Stephen Adly Guirgis play to life.
One of the most beautiful things about this play is that it invites you to personally reconcile its questions of faith and forgiveness, to weigh virtue and sin. In asking you to engage with your beliefs, you come to a conclusion uniquely your own. We collected ballots of completely mixed responses from our audience each night to further reveal the genius of this material.
Despite its comedic, fantastical, and over the top elements, The Last Days of Judas Iscariot delves into very real and heavy crises affecting our society today: Depression and Suicide. All proceeds from this production went towards Samaritans NYC, a nonprofit organization that provides suicide prevention/awareness education, as well as 24 hour crisis hotlines.
