The Ordinalia is coming home!
Following on from the hugely successful staging of the Cornish Ordinalia between 2000-2004, St Just-in-Penwith is about to embark once again on a new community production of the fourteenth century Mystery plays. In September 2021 under autumn sunsets and the dark skies of West Cornwall, the Ordinalia Company of St Just will be creating a true celebration of Cornish cultural life. This spectacular trilogy, performed outdoors in-the-round, is made up of The Origin of the World, The Passion of Christ, and The Resurrection of Christ, and will coincide with the loan of the Bodleian Ordinalia manuscripts to Kresen Kernow, Cornwall’s new archive centre.
