Oberammergau Passion Plays Supper
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intense moment of the Last Supper scene from the world-renowned Oberammergau Passion Play in 1934. The small Bavarian town of Oberammergau, located in the Alpine foothills of Germany, has been staging this passion play every ten years since 1634, as a vow made to God to end the bubonic plague that was ravaging the region. The image portrays the actors, dressed in traditional costumes, gathered around a long wooden table, their faces etched with emotion as they reenact the final moments before Jesus' crucifixion. The dimly lit room, adorned with candles and crosses, creates an atmospheric setting that transports the viewer back in time. The Passion Play in Oberammergau is a unique and deeply moving theatrical experience, with the actors living in the town and immersing themselves in their roles for the entire year leading up to the performance. The play is a testament to the town's rich history and deep-rooted religious traditions, and draws visitors from all over the world. This photograph offers a glimpse into the passion and dedication of the actors and the community of Oberammergau, as they bring the story of Jesus' last days to life on stage. The image is a powerful reminder of the enduring power of live theatre and the human spirit.
