Passion Play

PASSION PLAY
 
 
The Passion Play  or Easter pageant is a dramatic presentation depicting the Passion of Jesus Christ:  his trial, suffering and death.  It is a traditional part of Lent in several Christian denominations, particularly in Catholic tradition.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

Jesus Christ Superstar was frequently criticized for not showing the Resurrection; but actually, the album has the format of a traditional Passion Play, ending abruptly after Jesus’ final words on the Cross
