Der Mythos Oberammergau

Why go

An on-stage conversation for anyone curious about the Oberammergau Passion Play, the Bavarian village drama staged only once every ten years by 1,400 locals for around half a million visitors. Author Robert Löhr, whose novel dives into the tradition, joins the play's long-time director Christian Stückl and Frederik Mayet, who takes the role of Jesus, to unpack the myth and the work behind the curtain. It runs about 90 minutes in the intimate Barbastelle room, with doors from 18:30.
