Talk:Oberammergau Passion Play

message: What in sweet Christ does the Oberammergau Passion Play have to do with anti-Semitism?
The play explicity claims that Jesus was murdered by the Jews.  RickK 06:03, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Critics charge that the play is explicitly anti-Semitic, in that it blames the Jews for the "murder" of Jesus Christ. The text of the play has been editted repeatedly over the centuries. The most recent performances have had reduced amounts of anti-semitic content.
If you read the text of the play, or the book cited above about the play and the modifications to the play prior to its 2000 proformance, they above is clear, perhaps even understated. The "Critics charge that" is unnecessary. OneVoice 21:28, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Let me guess, a WORLD WAR maybe? Philwelch 06:41, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

replies: text: It shouldn't all have been removed. It seems to be fact that the play has been changed over the years to reflect public opinion and viewpoints. There's absolutely no point-of-view in stating that. • Anakin (contribs • complaints) 18:01, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

message: "The death rate among adults rose from one person per 1000 per year in October 1632 ..." No it didn't. If out of each 1000 adults, one died each year, then it would take 1000 years for all of them to die (actually longer, because when there were only 500 survivors, the rate should be down to once every two years), and by now the village would have lots of people over 383 years old. One per 1000 of all young adults maybe, but not all adults including the oldest; that's impossible. Art LaPella (talk) 02:30, 19 September 2015 (UTC)

message: "In 2010 it had a running time of 5 hours, beginning at 2:30 pm and ending at 10:00 pm, with a meal break. It was staged a total of 102 days and ran from May 15 until October 3 that year"
I'm a little confused. The article states that the play is staged in one day. So every other year (that it occurred) it ran once but in 2010 they performed it over a hundred times? Enigmamsg 03:25, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
