Ethno-cultural mandate or ethno-cultural casting statement:
THE CANADIAN BADLANDS PASSION PLAY is one of Canada's largest outdoor
theatrical events. Now in its 19th season, the company annually depicts
the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ in dramatic form. An
epic story told on an epic scale, this year's production features a
creative retelling of the Gospel of John.  The brand new script will be
originated by a mixed professional/volunteer cast of approximately 200
actors in a 2700-seat outdoor amphitheater.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Seeking physically-able actors comfortable working with live animals and
performing outdoors in a large-scale production.

Additional information:
The Passion Play is looking for a Jesus understudy (male, 33 years old):
The rightful heir to the created world arrives on earth to find his
creation does not recognize him. As he seeks to restore an ancient
kingdom, he must confront the cultural power sources of his time and the
age-old human condition. Stage combat experience essential.
