Oniahan Who Saw
the Passion Play
Tells Impressions
Dr. George A. Miller, in lalk
to Concord Club. Denies
Natives Arc Mercenary
Sacrilegious.
_ %
The simple peasants of Oberarn
ir.ergau. who present “The Passion
Play-’ every 10 years, are neither
mercenary nor sacrilegious, accord
ing to Dr. George A. Miller, pastor
of the hirst Christian church, who
spoke to Concord club yesterday noon
in Hotel Fontenelle.
Dr. Miller, who witnessed a per
ft i mance of this famous play last
May, asserted that his total expense
for two nights’ lodging, five meals and
a desirable seat, was
"This famous play, or Oather dem
onstration—for such it is — stands
unique in the world today,” said Dr.
Miller. “I have traveled far and seen
mueli of the wide, wide world, but I
must say that the day I spent wit
nessing the Passion Play stands out
an one of the most Important days
of niy liCe.
Only Natives Participate.
“Only natives of Oberammergauaro
allowed to participate in the play and
it is tlie life ambition of many of the
natives to take one of the loading
roles. The persons, who give the play,
are not actors. They wears the cos
tumes of t lie period represented, but
there is no makeup of the face. The
participants range from 3 to 9f> years
of age. When I attended, pierc were
about 7iW> In the play. All ware re
quired to attend holy communion ev
ery morning.
The play started at S a. m„ and at
12 there was an intermission which
lasted until 2 p. m. when another four
hour series of scenes was started.
Thera was not more than half a. min
ute wait between the change of any
scene. Anton Pang. who has portray
ed the role of Christ since 1900. is a
potter and appears like the Christ
of middle life.
Vivid Tortrajal.
"During Hie crucifixion scene I was
unable with a pair of strong field
glasses to detect liow Pang was mis
ponded from the cross. The nails and
tlie wounds were there and it was all
, so real. The auditorium in which
they held the play, seated 4.000.
“I am able to state that these pco
pie refused $1.000,000 from an Anieri
i an motion picture concern for the
privilege of filming the Passion Piny.
They do not make enough out of the
receipts to pay llio actual expenses.
They arc deeply religious.
