LAKE COUNTY >> The 35th annual Outdoor Passion Play takes place May 16 and 17, next Saturday and Sunday, at 4 p.m. The stunning two hour, multi-denominations drama covers the last days in the life of Jesus, starting with the Last Supper and ending with the resurrection.
A cast of close to 150 people, along with horses, sheep and other animals, brings the story to life on 20 acres along Westlake Rd. north of Lakeport. The play takes place on several small, rolling hills and sets includes the Garden of Gethsemane, the house of Caiphas, the Last Supper stage, Pilate’s judgement hall, and Herod’s palace. The Via Dolorosa is a 615-foot climb to the crucifixion scene.
Guests watch from the grass, bringing their own lawn chairs or blankets. After the play, they can mingle with the cast.
Admission is free. For more information call 707-279-0349.
