Witness this moving performance from the Wintershall Players, which commemorates the day Jesus is believed to have been arrested, tried and crucified.
A cast of more than 100 actors and volunteers dressed in splendid costumes, as well as horses, donkeys and doves, come together to create an authentic scene in the famous square.
Returning for the ninth year, the show has become a permanent fixture of London’s Easter weekend and attracts thousands of spectators, encompassing all faiths.
There are two 90-minute live performances at midday and 3:15pm, which are projected onto a big screen so everyone in the square can follow the action.
The Passion of Jesus has a realistic interpretation of the crucifixion, so parental guidance is advised.
