This short is great. Judas gets one day off every thousand years, and he’s using this one to lawyer up and get out of the 9th circle of hell for good. I appreciated that there’s a little bit of ‘Who is this guy? Is this a joke?’ but the play doesn’t dwell there, instead moving on to the justice Judas seeks, why he thinks he deserves it, and how God tries to stop it. I’m a sucker for funny plays featuring folks from the Bible, and this is a delightful one.
