Esparreguera Passion Play
The Esparreguera Passion Play (Catalan: Passió d'Esparreguera) is a performance of the Passion Play in Esparreguera, Catalonia, Spain. The play has over three hundred actors and live music, and is performed in twelve performances, staged every Sunday from March to May.
The townspeople of Esparreguera, a town northwest of Barcelona, get involved every year to carry out the festival. The performances take place at the Teatre de la Passió, a large theater venue opened in 1969 and designed specifically for Passion Play performances. Along with the Olesa Passion, it is one of the most important Passion Plays in Catalonia.
