ISCARIOT is a queer, Asian American, heretical revisionist history about Judas Iscariot. Set at a fancy high school in modern-day Hollywood, it’s a commentary on betrayal, celebrity culture, and the power of shaping your own narrative.

ISCARIOT was workshopped at Harvard College on April 23, 2022. View the workshop program here.
