Passion Play
by Sarah Ruhl; directed by Caitlin Lowans
April 23–May 10, 2020
Dusty Loo Bon Vivant Theater
This inventive epic takes us behind the scenes of three communities in three periods— Elizabethan England, Germany during the rise of Hitler, and Vietnam-era South Dakota—all staging the Passion of the Christ. This ambitious play asks how individuals find themselves in a community that allows them to play just a single role.
