The story of A Passion Play is split into 4 Acts, each containing a group of songs pertaining to the Act, with an Interlude in the middle. It revolves around a man named Ronnie Pilgrim and his spiritual journey in the afterlife. He dies, experiences judgement, visits Heaven and Hell, and then is reborn.
