 Nobody knows when and how the text was brought to Sordevolo, but in 1816 the Play found new life.The most ancient text used in Sordevolo is a copy of the original roman manuscript printed in Turin in 1728, now exhibited and preserved in the Museum of the Passion, inside the Church of Santa Marta, one of the churches of the village.The entire scenography, realized by the inhabitants with their own means and competence, rebuilds in the wide amphitheatre a corner of Jerusalem in the 33 a.C.
