Description

Artistic Producer Zorana Kydd founded the company in 2002 following the completion of her Doctoral Studies in Theatre at The University of Toronto, The Graduate Centre for Study of Drama. Company won six Dora Awards one for Assassins by Stephen Sondheim and five Dora Awards and nine nominations for The Last Days of Judas Iscariot . BirdLand Theatre was incorporated in 2002 and has obtained charitable status in 2007.

Guirgis’ sense of the absurd and his ability to make colloquial, topical and local (his world seems a totally New York universe) the historical characters he calls forth (to give witness in Fabiana Cunningham’s appeal on Judas’s behalf) makes the dance of ideas in play so accessible and entertaining. The questions he raises about the human obsession for punishment and forgiveness are universal ones.

Birdland Theatre , the 6 time Dora award winning producers of Assassins , The Last Days of Judas Iscariot and The Pillowman , is thrilled to announce the world première of a show like no other!

The Last Days of Judas Iscariot is produced by Birdland Theatre Inc. - Artistic Producer Zorana Kydd and Producer Monica Esteves.
