Judas postcard
Judas—the ultimate betrayer—is on trial in Purgatory. But he’s catatonic with guilt, so the lawyers, witnesses, judge, and jury try his case without him, debating free will, divine intervention, punishment, and redemption along the way. A darkly funny, deeply challenging examination of faith and forgiveness.
