Canadian Badlands Passion Play
A large-scale Passion Play of Jesus performed in a natural badlands amphitheatre, running for several weeks each July.
The Passion Play has been staged since 1994 in a natural badlands amphitheatre on the west side of town. The canyon formations serve as a natural backdrop. Hundreds of actors and volunteers take part in retelling the life of Jesus. It is one of the larger productions of its kind in North America. Performances run for several weeks each July. Tickets cost about CAD 50–70 and should be booked in advance. The amphitheatre is open-air, so bring sunscreen and a jacket.
