Traitor, outcast, pariah. Hero, savior, messiah. ISCARIOT: THE MUSICAL re-imagines Judas Iscariot as a queer Asian American high school senior who falls in love, betrays his best friend, and learns to take control of his own narrative. Set in a glitzy high school in modern-day Hollywood, ISCARIOT is a new interpretation of the Bible canon, and a commentary on race, class, and celebrity culture.
