Hailed by the New Yorkers John Lahr as extraordinary, bold, and inventive, Sarah Ruhls Passion Play takes us behind the scenes of three communities attempting to stage the death and resurrection of Christ. From Queen Elizabeths England to Hitlers Germany to Reagans America, Ruhls exploration of devotion takes us on a humorous yet unsettling journey filled with lust, whimsy, and a lot of fish.

This intimate epic occurs at the timely intersection of politics and religion. Ruhl dramatizes a community of players rehearsing their annual staging of the Easter Passion in three different eras: 1575 northern England, just before Queen Elizabeth outlaws the ritual; 1934 Oberammergua, Bavaria, as Hitler is rising to power; and Spearfish, South Dakota, from the time of Vietnam through Reagans presidency. In each period, the players grapple in different ways with the transformative nature of art, and politics are never far in the background, as Queen Elizabeth, Hitler, and Reagan each appear, played by a single commanding actor.

Named one of the Ten Best Plays of 2008 by The New Yorker

Her Ruhls] unmistakable voice - poetic and quirky, underpinned with serious feeling and even more serious intelligence - trumpets forth in brash, impressive form in this ambitious and frisky if sometimes unruly play. -New York Times.

Ruhls voice seems to retreat beyond the sphere of the play, performing that special vanishment that good writers-and good gods-know best how to do....Critics Pick -Time Out NY

Lets just get the superlatives out of the way. Sarah Ruhls Passion Play is the most exciting, stimulating, and thrilling piece of theater to hit New York since Angels in America. -Backstage
