Judas Exclusive

A liar. A traitor. A thief.

Tonight, Judas Iscariot tells his side of the story.

Mere days after the death of Jesus Christ, the most infamous man in Judea makes his first public appearance on Simona Tonight: an ailing late-night talk show desperate for one last ratings miracle.

But this is no ordinary interview. As Judas attempts to clear his name, the cameras keep rolling, the audience keeps judging and Simona fights to hold together a broadcast that is collapsing in real time. Before long, one exclusive confession becomes a surreal, channel-changing odyssey through fame, betrayal, public shame and the dying days of broadcast television.

Wickedly funny, irreverent and sharply satirical, Judas Exclusive reimagines the world's most notorious betrayal through the lens of celebrity culture, media spectacle and the public's endless appetite for scandal.

A bold new comedy for the stage, Judas Exclusive is ideal for readers of contemporary drama, Fringe theatre audiences, performers, drama students and theatre companies looking for fast, provocative, high-energy new writing.
