 The Plays 

 

 

The Last Days of Judas Iscariot

 Set in the "Americanization" of purgatory, The Last Days of Judas Iscariot bends time, place and character to re-envision the Judeo-Christian history and myth surrounding Judas Iscariot, and examine love, forgiveness and despair within us all, while asking the question: where do heaven and hell reside: in a physical place, in our minds, or in our hearts?

 

The Time: Present

The Place: Purgatory

 

There will be no intermission

 

 


 

 

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
Acclaimed as a modern masterpiece, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is the fabulously inventive tale of two minor characters' search for the meaning within the larger story of Shakespeare's Hamlet.

 

The Time: Passing

The Place: Unremarkable

 

There will be one 10 minute intermission

 


 

 

Iron Tongue of Midnight

 "The lunatic, the lover and the poet

Are of imagination all compact" 

--William Shakespeare
