The Passion Play Returns
By Linda Tancs
It’s (almost) that time again. Reservations will begin in 2008 for the 2010 production of The Passion Play in the Bavarian village of Oberammergau, Germany. The play, depicting the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, was first mentioned in a text from the 1600s citing the villagers’ promise to God to produce the play every 10 years in exchange for being spared from the Black Death. The 2010 performances, from May to October, will mark the 41st production in modern times. If you snooze you’ll lose out until 2020.
