This article is called Thousands gather in London to watch re-enactment of crucifixion of Christ for Good Friday By Josie Ensor. Thousands of people have gathered to watch a dramatic re-enactment of the crucifixion of Christ in a passion play in London’s Trafalgar Square. The author underline that braving the brisk four degree temperatures, crowds watched the time-honoured, traditional performance of the last hours of Jesus' life are a key part of the Easter celebration. The play has been performed twice before in Trafalgar Square by the Wintershall Players, a group based in Surrey and founded by enthusiast Peter Hutley. The play commemorates the day Jesus is believed to have been killed by the Romans, two day before miraculously rising from the dead on Easter Sunday. And it is the thirteenth time the role of Jesus has been played by James Burke-Dunsmore, a 41-year-old actor who has used his striking looks to carve out a career niche playing Christ. Adding to the physical toll of playing Jesus is the heavy cross he carried around Trafalgar Square today, made from two real tree trunks. The play featured the judgement of Jesus in front of Pontius Pilate, followed by the journey through the streets of Jerusalem wearing the crown of thorns and carrying the cross. The dramatic highlight of the performance was the crucifixion itself, when Christ and two thieves were strung up on crosses with nails in their hands and feet.

This theme was really interesting for me all time and when I found this  article I decided to read it and didn't pity about it. It is horrible but we must know it!!!
