The Edgehill Passion Play is part of the 700th anniversary celebrations of St Peter’s Kineton. A Passion Play tells the story of the events of the last week in the life of Jesus Christ. The beginning of the Edgehill Passion Play is set around 30 years after the death of Christ...
In 60 A.D. Nero was Emperor of Rome and Christians were being persecuted by the Roman state. In the midst of this pers
ecution a group of Christians has gathered secretly to hear the first-hand account from a woman that was with Jesus when he was teaching, healing and challenging the authorities 30 years previously… She sat at the feet of Jesus learning from him with the other disciples, she was the one that anointed Jesus with perfume on the night before he was betrayed, she was there at the crucifixion, she was one of the first people to discover the empty tomb and learn of the resurrection. As she tells the tale of what happens she takes the assembled group on a journey through her memories, recalling the week that led up to the crucifixion of Jesus. Come to Kineton High School on 1st, 2nd or 3rd April and hear her testimony as she shares what happened in that first Holy Week.
