The Passion of Vilalba dels Arcs

A social version of the Passion of Jesus!

The Passion of Vilalba dels Arcs brings us closer to the social and cultural reality that Jesus Christ lived during the last days of his life, from the entry into Jerusalem to the crucifixion.

The play, which takes place through the streets and squares of the historic center of the town, is a clear example of the purest theater, since the audience participates in the twelve scenes, even mixing with the actors and actresses, thus providing realism in the performance. representation.

This vision of the Passion of Jesus includes the most social aspect of the biblical story, hence the importance of the townspeople and especially the women, always forgotten, who take on a special role from the first moment until reaching the foot of the cross.

The oil lights, the clarity of the tiles, the sackcloth, the smell of aromatic herbs and the sound of jackdaws are the elements that make up this humble passion without special effects, where the importance of words and dialogue are its main protagonists.

We wait for you!
