Art in the Mountains: the Story of the Passion Play Henry Blackburn

Since the following description of the Passion Play was written (part of which has already appeared in the Graphic newspaper), we learn that, in consequence of the interruption to these performances, caused by the war, they will be repeated for a short time, next summer. Joseph Mair and the principal performers did not, as was generally supposed, take any active part in the war. They are all, we are glad to hear, safe and sound at the time we write; so that in all probability, this wonderful dramatic company will not be broken up. Information for future visitors to Oberammergau will be found in an Appendix to this volume ;also in The A mmergau Passion Play (reprinted from the Times) by the Rev. M. Mac Coll.
