PCC Theatre Arts Announces its 2007-2008 Season
The Last Days of Judas Iscariot by Stephen Adly Guirgis
Our final mainstage show offers a second chance to a man most famous for a kiss: the kiss he planted on the purported son of God and savior of mankind. A couple of millennia later, a feisty and fetching lady lawyer turns up the heat in purgatory by forcing a retrial of the apostle whose name has become synonymous with betrayal. Can divine love and perfect justice be reconciled? Can Judas ultimately find forgiveness? The jury is out. Freud, Mother Theresa, and Satan himself will all take the stand in our production of Stephen Adly Guirgis’ seriously profane and searching new play, directed by Gretchen Icenogle.
Warning: This play is intended for mature audiences. It has language and content that may offend.
Performance dates: May 8, 9, 10, 16 & 17 at 7:30 p.m. and May 18 at 2 pm. Tickets and Location Information
About the Season
PCC Theatre Arts will be presenting two classic plays and one contemporary drama during its 2007-2008 season. The first play will be Oscar Wilde’s hilarious comedy of manners, The Importance of Being Earnest, directed by theatre arts instructor Julie Akers. During winter term, PCC Theatre will present William Shakespeare’s epic drama Henry IV, Part I, directed by the new chair of the theatre arts program, Gretchen Icenogle. Later that spring, The Last Days of Judas Iscariot by cutting-edge dramatist Stephen Adly Guirgis, will be staged. Also, look out for our annual Student One-Act Play Festival.
Please join us for these exciting new productions. We look forward to seeing you there!
