The Judas Sheep

When Emily Hurley discovered that her great Grandmother Emily Horrell had suffered an episode of post-partum psychosis and was institutionalized for a year at Sunnyside Mental Hospital from 1932 to 1933, she was inspired to dig deeper.

Hurley began devising a theatre piece about the strength it takes to overcome mental illness, as well as the stigma around it. In "The Judas Sheep", Hurley collaborated with:

• Director – Grace Augustine
• Movement director – Amber Liberte
• Musician – Chris Marshall
• Puppeteer – Yin-Chi Lee
• Videos editor – Olaf Flint

After a sell-out show in 2020, we are back with a new and improved season of "Judas Sheep" at Basement Theatre. 

However, in order to make this show the best it can be, we are in need of some extra $$ to help us improve our set and costumes, pay for our rehearsal space, and to help us to promote the show.

Any all support would be so hugely appreciated! We can't wait to see you there.
