It's almost Passion Play time in Oberammergau, the once-every-decade pageant which runs from May through October. Townspeople play every role and one can only imagine that the competition for the choice roles must be great. All roles have now been announced, and to help the locals get used to who is who, they've posted large photo montages, showing this year's cast, along with former casts. Now, as you walk down the street and accidentally bump into the guy you recognize as playing Jesus, I guess it would be wise to be REALLY apologetic. This montage shows Jesus Through the Ages, or at least back as far as the 1860s. As I mentioned a couple of months ago, once you've played Christ, what more is there to look forward to? You've "peaked at the Play," I guess.
