Passion Plays have been a long-standing tradition among Christian churches throughout the world, and they originated in England in the 14th century. The main text originates from the Passion narratives as told through the four Gospels in the Bible: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Many versions of Passion Plays contain musical settings, including traditional hymns and Gregorian chant of the Church, while others are simple spoken prose. Each play features the key characters from the Gospels, including Jesus, his mother Mary, Judas, Pontius Pilate and more.
