This latest work from the author of Our Lady of 121st Street &#8220;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&#8217;s losers and an unforced eloquence that finds the poetry in lowdown street talk. [Guirgis brings to the play] a stirring sense of Christian existential pain, which wonders at the paradoxes of faith&#8221; (Ben Brantley, <i>The New York Times</i>).<br></div> 745944 27 12 2005 The Last Days of Judas Iscariot: A Play total:55|5:22|4:22|3:7|2:3|1:1| 55 226 76 11 4 0 false false Sun Jul 20 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 21 13:54:34 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 21 14:38:35 -0700 2008
