The question is who betrayed him? is not so simple and clear: the silent "faithful" disciples, the screaming, bloodthirsty crowd, or Judas, on whom the shameful name of BETRAYER has been placed as a curse forever...
The first version of this great play has been presented at numerous prestigious theatre festivals!
The following are quotes from famous theatre critics, inspired by what they saw...!:
"... Alexander Rubinov is a powerful, intelligent, temperamental actor. His character is marked by nature as an outcast creature. He has a part of the devil in him, love and hatred for Christ coexist... I'm not even talking about the instant transformation, the micro-portraits of each apostle. Alexander Rubinov's acting is a measure of the highest theatrical conditionality and the true life of an actor.
"....Alexander Rubinov's acting is very precise. In the actor's performance, Andreev's polyphonic prose takes on an even greater polyphonic quality. When the actor transforms into Judas, his face becomes truly extraordinary...
Each movement of the plot finds a new incarnation, the actor does not repeat himself. The work of director Stanislovas Rubinovas is masterly, the space of the action is very modestly planned, although there are few scenographic elements, but he manages to create a picturesque picture of the play. There is a wonderful episode where the light on the right is purple and the light on the left is green, the duality of Judas. There are scenes where you just want to stop the play and look at it as if it were a painting."
