That’s pretty cool. How is this different than the other passion plays that have been performed for centuries?
Or are you critizing the artistic quality of the performance?
Did you click on the other link? Liturgical dancers and children washing the feet of women for Holy Thursday. I don’t know what is scarier!
Wow, that was rather lame.
Surprised Robert Smith or Marylin Manson wasn’t there to provide music.
(The beautiful people, the beautiful people …) NOT! LOL.
Catho-goth
Still not as cool as the live Ways of the Cross in the Philippines, where the guy portraying Jesus actually gets nailed to the Cross.

Now *that* is POD.
This just proves what I already knew in high school: drama club kids are losers.
Rob – I take high offense to the term “drama club kids” – we were Green Room People!!!
Cruised the entire parish website….Yikes!!!
It’s the red bandanas and black eye shadow that make it look so creepy.
Before I entered the Seminary I was in a similar group. It was moving to watch and be a part of. But we didn’t wear those creepy red bandanas.
The white face-paint represents death to self, that tiny red dot on their cheek represents Christ’s blood out-poured. As for what the red bandanas and eyeshadow mean? You got me.
Hey, it could be worse. At least they’re actually performing some sort of Passion Play. Most people their age don’t even know what one is- heck, most people of ANY age would be simply confused by the mere word “Passion” in connection with such a bloody event.
