The Great Passion Play

Large outdoor Passion Play complex on the hillside above Eureka Springs

The Great Passion Play is more than a seasonal performance: it is a hillside religious complex with an outdoor amphitheatre, biblical exhibits, trails, and the nearby Christ of the Ozarks statue. It is one of the attractions that gives Eureka Springs its unusual mix of Victorian resort town and Ozark pilgrimage site.

Whether the show itself is your thing depends on taste and timing, but the scale is hard to ignore. Check the calendar before you go, and treat the site as part of the town's broader religious landscape rather than a casual downtown stop.
