The San Antonio Passion Play dates back to 1983, when the wooden cross carried by the actor playing Jesus weighed 150 pounds, compared to the 50-pound cross used today.
KSAT is planning to livestream the Passion Play in this article on Friday, April 7. As a warning to younger or more sensitive audiences, the play is very graphic due to the nature of the story.
In the Passion Play, Jesus is condemned to death and forced to carry his cross. He falls several times and is stripped of his garments, after which he is nailed to the cross and then his body is taken down after he dies. The crucifixion will be depicted in front of San Fernando Cathedral. The play also depicts Pontius Pilate washing his hands and Mary, Jesus’s mother, holding her son’s body after he is removed from the cross.9:30 a.m. - Prayer Service at Milam Park 12 p.m. Crucifixion in front of San Fernando Cathedral 1 p.m. Las Siete Palabras – The Seven Last Words of Christ2:30 p.m. Celebration of the Lord’s Passion4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
