William Seymour was the stage director, David Belasco the prompter. REAPII^G A y/HIRLWIIlD It is strange to find that this production should have caused a great upheaval in local Saji Francisco circles and throughout the country, especially since, according to con- temporary reports, the play was accepted in a reverent spirit by members of the cast as v/ell as the audience. It is relat- ed that many spectators, overcome by the beauty and religious fervor of the performance, knelt and prayed thr...oughout whole scenes; and that members of the cast were uplifted to the point of foreswearing vrarldly habits and thinking in terms of the life hereafter. But the City Fathers and the more conservative citi- zens felt that The Passion ;vas a subtle approach to 'blasphemy. Said the Call of March 16: 55 ''The Pagsiorx Flay slowly v;on its way to popu- larity against much opposition, until the Su- pervisoi'ial ordinance finally squelched Morse and his darj.n^, innovation on stage literature." Indeed, the play was offered only for a week bafore it was reluctantly v/ithdravm in the face of advancing favor , It IE also rspoi'ted that the play caused a great fU- ror ainon^; the Jev/s and Irish Catholics of the city.
