PASSION PLAY Please contact Deacon Jack at 516-741-5632 Oberammergau or [email protected] for further 2020 information. Now we look ahead to 2020, to the tiny Bavarian town of Oberammergau, to the world famous Passion Play, a profound experience of faith, presented in music, tableau, and drama. We just received official confirmation that a block of tickets has been reserved for St. Joseph Parish for Tuesday, September 29, 2020. This is exciting news, because tickets are limited for this once-in-a-decade event that attracts world-wide interest. Our agents need to know how many tickets we will commit for, because of the high demand and many performances are sold out already.
The tradition of the Passion Play is the fulfillment of a vow made by the inhabitants of the tiny village of Oberammergau in the Bavarian Alps in 1634, promising that if their village was spared the ravages of the Black Death – the Plague that was being spread by the warring Catholic and Lutheran armies – they would present a portrayal of the events of Holy Week: Palm Sunday through Easter, once every ten years. The village was We Welcome the Newly Baptized spared, and the vow has been kept for almost 400 years.
