Donations will be accepted at the door. Father David Janes, a retired priest, has pro- duced passion plays annually since he was in seminary. Passion plays have been staged in vari- ous forms for at least 700 years, and in coun- tries as disparate as Sri Lanka and the Nether- lands. There has been a revival of interest in these theatrical produc- tions because the pas- sion, death and resur- rection of Jesus remain relevant and compelling in every age. The Hermitage Play- ers production pres- ents the passion as it has been over the centuries, but against a stark, evoc- ative modern setting. The result is a moving experience of the story that is fundamental to Christian faith. Follow us on Facebook! FACEBOOK.COM/ COASTWEEKEND
