It may be that I'm just stuck on certain ideas. This would have been Nixie's first Passion Play. Its happened every ten years on the year for a couple of hundred years so far. Now its a big tourist attraction. But I figure she'd be about 8 years old this time, and ten years later she'll be about 18 which is the age i imagine her when she was changed. I'm not sure about the theater. This was a serious commitment for the village even though at the time it was just for themselves, so they may have had a place set aside for it, as they do today. Maybe.<br /><br />Garce<br />"The shortest way to a man's heart is to saw through his ribs."<br /> NixieGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-60310774989021851702011-06-22T22:28:17.156-04:002011-06-22T22:28:17.156-04:00Would there have been an actual theater in Oberamm...Would there have been an actual theater in Oberammergau? I picture it as a village. If the passion play occurred only once every ten years, a theater might have been superfluous.<br /><br />Also - I think that this would have been Nixie's first passion play.<br /><br />Anyway - thank you for sharing the workings of your creative spirit.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-21201599478100547582011-06-22T22:26:03.553-04:002011-06-22T22:26:03.553-04:00Hello, Garce,

The setting I want to use someday is Oberammergau (I just love to say that word out loud Oberammergau Oberammergau Oberammergau ) in Bavaria where they have the Passion Play every ten years. That's all I know for sure.<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-71835285074711558722011-06-22T20:20:38.438-04:002011-06-22T20:20:38.438-04:00Hi Margaret

I haven;t found the story yet. I've come to find that the best stories don;t just pop up. They make you look for them and when you've about given up - suddenly they pop up almost fully formed. I hope this one will too.<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-68812113069040578732011-06-22T12:22:10.309-04:002011-06-22T12:22:10.309-04:00Full of atmosphere.
