The Canadian Badlands Passion Play on Social Media

For over 30 seasons, the badlands near Drumheller have transformed into the Holy Land in the summer to tell the story of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. In a 2-hour 15-minute outdoor performance (plus a 20-minute intermission), the audience remains captivated as the story is brought to life from a scripture-based script with realistic sets and costumes, and superb performances by the actors.

The play is held in the badlands amphitheatre. Each year brings a fresh perspective on the story as the script, production and cast changes from year to year.

More Information

The show always goes on despite the weather, so make sure to bring sunscreen and sun protection as well as warm clothes and umbrellas just in case the weather turns. It doesn't hurt to bring cushions either, as you will be sitting in bleachers for three hours (with a 20 minute break).
