Passion Play 2010

The Churches Together in Bridlington and District's Walk of Witness 2010 is to take the form of a Passion Play, on Good Friday 2nd April.

Preparations for the Passion Play are well underway and the next meeting and first rehearsal will be held at Emmanuel Church at 7pm on Friday 8th January 2010.
Every one is welcome to join in and particularly if you normally participate in the Walk of Witness. Don't miss this great opportunity to contribute to this very special event!

The Passion Play will start at approximately 10.45am at Holy Trinity Church on Good Friday. It will process to the seafront at Donkey Bridge and then on to Leisure World. We will then move on to Garrison Square and through the town centre to Ebor Flats gardens and the Spa. The final Crucifixion scene will occur on the sands of South Beach. At each of these locations actors and followers of the Passion will re-enact scenes from the final days of Jesus' life.

We wish to recruit volunteers to join us - to act, sing, dance or to follow as part of the crowd. Why not dress up the family in the robes of the day? Advice will be given on simple costumes but bedspreads and tea towels work wonders! Are you a budding Jesus or one of his disciples? Men, women and children are welcome to join the group as actors or followers under the Directorship of Mark Newsum from the Spotlight Theatre.

Please come along and join us at Emmanuel Church at 7pm on Friday 8th January 2010. Bring along all the family and help make this Passion Play a special event and unique Easter celebration for our town.
