RTL TV Show: The Passion

 Last night, RTL (commercial German TV network) ran a live production musical....called 'The Passion'.

Yes, the Jesus-story....live....musical.  

First, I would say it's remarkable that they had the guts/courage to run this 90-minute piece in a live-format.  As far as I could see....nothing failed.

Location?  Essen.....central party of the city.  

Lot of celebrates?  Oh, I would guess at least fifty-odd folks were in the background.

Music used?  Mostly all German/Austrian pop songs from the past twenty years.

More of an experiment?  I would suggest that it's one of the weirdest ideas to come up with.....doing this in some central area of a city, and running the whole thing live.  There had to be at least thirty different cameras involved.  

Opening a door for future attempts?  Maybe.
