Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2010 marked the 41st anniversary of the Oberammergau Passion Play which has been produced on an average of once every decade since 1634. The play- called the "Passionspiele" in German- has gained the distinction of being the longest running Passion play in history, as well as the most highly attended play of its kind, hosting 4,720 people five days a week from the middle of May through the end of September. Despite obstacles of war, political upheaval, cultural issues, and religious objections, the play has endured. The story of the Passion in conjunction with a presentation style that is a virtual pastiche of historic and modern theatrical elements has allowed the Oberammergau Passion Play to stand the test of time. Including a brief history of the Passion story and the town of Oberammergau, this analysis addresses the use of the text, the music, tableaux vivants, costumes and lighting, and the performance space as key elements in the play's success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every ten years since 1634, the Bavarian village of Oberammergau has performed the world's most famous Passion Play, recounting the last days of Jesus Christ. In 2010, presenting the play for the 41st time, the village broke with tradition to offer a new interpretation for a post-millennial, international audience. Drawing on interviews with villagers and international responses, this collection of new essays provides an analysis of the play by scholars who attended. Topics include changes in response to charges of anti-Semitism, how the play defines the village, how the performance changes the audience, and a comparison of Oberammergau 2010 with American Passion Plays, Indian pilgrimage drama and other German Passion Plays.
