A cannon announces the opening of the theatre at 7:45 A. M. By 8 o'clock the audience is seated, the orchestra commencing with the stroke of the clock and the doors are closed. During this musical in- troduction we are told the players, numbering 600 repeat a prayer, after which the chorus enter the open-air stage, singing a prelude, calling on mankind to bow low in adoration before God. Then the curtain of the covered central stage is drawn aside, exposing a tableau of the banishment of Adiim and Eve from the Garden of Eden. The curtain quickly hides the picture, while the Choragus continues the chants, and then we have another set, ''The adoration of the Cross," while the singers kneel, explaining in the • -horus the object of this religious dramatic show. Then the real' play begins by the entrance of Ju»us into Jerusalem, accompanied by a crowd of 500 supers (in the costumes of the period), with many small children, and this first act is one of the finest stage sets I have had the thrilling pleasure of wit- nessing. The Passion Play con- tinues until mid-day when there is an interval of two hours for lunch. The Second Part Promptly at 2 o'clock the vast building Is again filled by the same audience, using the same cardboard ticket first allotted for the day. Part 2, eighth act, commences after the usual explanatory chorus with the taking of Jesus prisoner In the garden of Gethsemane, followed by the trial before Pilate, with numer- ous tableaux vlvants as compari- sons of the situations found in the Old and New Testaments. Thus we see the prophet Micaiah smitten on the cheek before King Ahab, the death of Naboth, Job mocked by his family. Cain murdering Abel, Daniel impeached before King Darius, etc. The fourteenth act is the uprising of the people Incited by Caiaphas, to demand the death of Christ. This is another monster set. From the three perspective stage views (that Is the two open air entrances, painted to represent streets, at the right and left of the covered stage, and from the back of the covered stage Itself with a special sot) flock the crowd led by the priests Ezekiel and Nathaniel, while Annas and Caiaphas urge the people to demand the crucifixion of the prisoner. Roman soldiers press them hack, while Pilate washes his hands and turns Christ over to his tormentors.

There is a brief chorus and then the central stage reveals the set of L'Mii* being nailed to the cross. The two thieves are already cruci- fied, and we see the cross erected wilh Christ hanging in agony. An- ton Lang in this role is suspended In a realistic manner for 20 min- utes, slowly dying. The thieves are beaten by the executioners to final- ly kill them, and taken down. A Koman soldier pierces the side of Jesus and the flow of blood is real- istically recorded. The famous pic- ture of Rubens in Antwerp Cathe- dral, "The Descent from the Cross." is minutely portrayed. Joseph of Arimathaea and Nicodemus mount a ladder, with the other devoted friends from Bethany at the foot, and they delicately withdraw the nails, lowering Christ for burial— an enthralling stage set. This in followed by the Resurrection (Act 17) and the Passion Play is ended at 6 p. m.. having held the audi- ence religiously spellbound for eight hours. The Score and Players The music was specially written by Roch Dedler, a former school- master at Oberammergau and a pupil of Martin Michel Reichard. It is of the highest order and the work of a master, even Wagner- like in parts. It is necessary for foreigners vis- iting Oberammergau to remain in the village two nights in order to attend the play. They are lodged in the homes of the villagers, ac- cording to the class of seat they wish to purchase. Those for the first class or best places, costing 100 marks, consequently lodge with the people holding the leading roles, It being my lot to stay with Hans Mayr, who is listed fog Pon- tius Pilate, an important part, but unable to act this year owing to throat trouble. Still his under- study Is his equal. But in spite of his illness entire interest of Hans Mayr is concentrated In the per- formances, making his guests com- fortable and talking of this world- famed show. The seats are dis- tributed by the Organizing com- mittee among the householders, who turn them over to the visitors, the lodging price Including five meals and a seat for the show. The ar- rangements are splendidly organ- ized and there is no overcharging of any kind in the village, as is reported to be tho case in Munich. The stage manager this year is Dr. George Lang, an important man in Oberammergau as the local doc- tor. Thirty-three y;ears of age, ha is an up-to-date producer, thougn having an atrophied hand caused by a wound received in the war. When a boy he studied as a wood rarver, the chief industry of the district, and was later for seven years In the Munich art school. This may account to a certain de- gree for the very artistic presenta- tion. The Passion Play has never been so successful from an artistic point of view as the scries in 1022. The village performers are not professionals, but they act with deep sincerity, actually feeling the part they are called on to imper- sonate. They speak German, and while the diction may not always be perfect, their acting is ex- traordinary. Hugo Rutz as the high priest Caiaphas (another important part in this play) is probably tlio best actor at Oberammergau this year, and great praise is due to Guido Mayr for his difficult impersonation of Judas. Martha Veit, the daugh- ter of a wood carver, has the Ma- donna type enabling her to realize to a high degree of perfection the part of the Virgin Mary. It is con- trary to tradition for a married woman to hold a part In tho Pas- sion Play, but an exception, Ottilie Zwick, the girl who formerly im- personated Mary, and now a widow, is still allowed to appear and is the understudy of Martha Volt. The s*\ale of charges of from 10 marks to 100 marks having Leon fixed early in the spring, and In view of the depreciation of the mark, it Is anticipated there will be no profit if not a loss this year on tho Oberammergau perform- ances. The average salary of tha Chief actors Is $500 for the entire series, the supers earning only a few dollars. Tho stago manner and musical lirr>etor receive $025 each, whf'-h is also' the remunera- tion of Anton Lang for his irn- prfsstve Impersonation of Christ. Rani I Dean Ins secured the rights <>r A A.
