The Passion of Clot

Don't miss the Passion of Clot (Barcelona)!

The representation of the first Passion of Jesus documented in the Christian Community of the Jesuits of Sant Pere Claver del Clot dates back to 1933; That year "Jesus of Nazareth" (1894) by Àngel Guimerà was performed.

The performances were stopped when the Civil War broke out and they were not resumed until 1988 with different versions of the Passion. After more than 20 years, in 2023, the representation of the Passion is recovered again with a new work and a new look: women as protagonists of the story.

'Passionate' is the title of the play written by Judit Vilaclara that explores the experiences of the women who accompanied Jesus in the last moments of his life and delves into the essence of Jesus' message. The Samaritan woman, to whom Jesus reveals his identity and runs to announce it everywhere. Mary Magdalene, whom Jesus frees from malicious prejudices. Claudia, who confronts her husband, Ponç Pilato, for having become an accomplice in the murder of an innocent man; They are some of the protagonists of the work, which aims to be a grain of sand in the fight for women's equality, especially in the Church.
