A new Harvard University play portrays Judas Iscariot as a 'queer' Asian American high schooler running for prom king who falls in love with Jesus Christ.
Harvard University students shared whether they support race-based college admissions ahead of the Supreme Court case deciding the fate of affirmative action.and one of his disciples as a"heretical gaysian love story," in a new play premiering this week.
"Jesus and Judas are high school seniors at a fancy high school in Hollywood. They are both kind of outsiders in the preppy club of the Disciples. They team up to win prom king and then shenanigans ensue. There’s a betrayal. There’s a crucifixion," Kim told the student newspaper, The Harvard Crimson.
The play's message is"for anybody who wants to find themselves" a member of the production team explained. Maddie Sebastian who portrays Judas, told The Crimson the play wasn't anti-religion, despite its controversial theme."The message of the show is not that religion sucks, or that God isn't real, or Jesus isn't real. We're not saying any of that. It is merely just a retelling of a work of literary merit," Sebastian stated.
