2018 First Baptist Church Passion Play back in JAX

If you missed it last year, don’t miss this year’s presentation of the “2018 PASSION PLAY” presented by First Baptist Church in downtown Jacksonville, FL.  The play features a choir, cast members, assistants, and an orchestra of numerous instruments.  The 2018 Jacksonville FBC Passion Play will encompass the Easter experience with a story of power, betrayal, redemption and HOPE.  Once again, you will have four opportunities to experience the magnificence of the prelude and Passion of Jesus Christ, the hope of glory.

Now entering its 11th year, the Jacksonville Passion Play has become an annual tradition at First Baptist Church, JAX.  The stage production features more than 400 parishioners as actors, merchants, ushers, greeters and a magnificent set designs team.  The Jacksonville Passion Play celebrates a few stories from the Bible along with some of the life, passion, death, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

The story of Jesus of Nazareth, told in the Bible, never gets old.  You may have seen this play before, but there is always something different: new costumes, stage sets, musical numbers, drama, and other surprises that are breathtaking.  As in 2017, there will be live animals and Jerusalem scenes throughout the first floor of the church.  You and you guests might desire to come a little earlier for all the festivities, and to mingle with the characters in the downstairs Jerusalem experience.
