La Passió d'Esparreguera Esparreguera (Av. Francesc Marimon, 83)

The Passion of Esparreguera is a show with great dramatic and technical complexity, which manages to convey to the modern viewer the essence of characters with two thousand years of history.

The grandeur of the theater (1,700 seats), the large number of actors on stage, the dizzying set changes, the perfect union of the text, and the original music performed live by an orchestra and a choir... turn The Passion of Esparreguera into a theatrical production with unique characteristics.

The current Passions are a logical evolution of the so-called " mysteries." The "mystery" was a dramatic representation of medieval origin in which passages from the life of Jesus, the Virgin Mary or some saints were staged. Subsequently, the genre evolved: the scenography became more complicated, the performances left the interior of the church towards the squares, music increasingly abandoned its predominant role, the clergy stopped being the only actors, brotherhoods were formed, mime intervened....
