Passion Play

A Passion Play is a theatrical presentation that depicts the last days of Jesus Christ, focusing on his suffering, crucifixion, and resurrection. Traditionally performed during Holy Week, particularly on Good Friday, these plays aim to convey the emotional and spiritual significance of Christ's sacrifice. They often involve elaborate costumes, scriptural narratives, and sometimes large casts, drawing on both religious themes and local customs. Originating in medieval Europe, Passion Plays continue to attract audiences worldwide, serving as both a form of worship and a means of educating people about Christian beliefs.
