Production Info

The above video was shot by professional videographer, Andrew Vaccaro, during the 2025 Good Friday performance of the Play. The Melbourne Passion Play is an event eagerly anticipated by spectators; it is also a forum for actors and would-be actors in which to become engaged, thus honing their talents before a very discerning audience. The Melbourne Passion Play has been performed for more than 20 years.

Because of its outdoor setting, the stage is nature itself. Interaction between cast and audience creates constant interest and excitement; this is especially so when the ever-present Roman legionaries demand law and order be maintained under strict orders from their Centurion. The Annual Melbourne Passion Play is an event that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. It is something that will remain memorable for a long time.

If you wish to take part in this very special event as an actor or backstage, the play will be held at the Catholic Regional College: 380 Sydenham Road, Sydenham, Melbourne, Victoria on Palm Sunday (March 29th 2026) and Good Friday (April 3rd 2026).
