The Passion Play Oberammergau , Germany
|
Oberammergau is famous for its Passion Play which was first
performed in 1634. In the middle of the 30 Years
War, after months of suffering and dying from the "Black Death," or
plague, surviving villagers swore an oath to perform a "Play of
the Suffering, Death and Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ", every ten years. The Play, originally made up of just
actors from the village itself, has grown to a stage production of
almost 2,000 performers, singers, musicians & stage technicians.
The Play is performed in the 5,000 seat Passion Play Theater
with it's open air stage. Limited seating is available.
