The ticket collection for the traditional Easter Play in São José dos Campos began on March 5, 2023, attracting many faithful who lined up to secure their seats for this popular event. This year, tickets are exclusively available through in-person collection at the Igreja da Cidade in Vila Tatetuba. Each ticket, while free, requires the exchange of one kilogram of non-perishable food, which will then be donated to families in vulnerable situations, highlighting the community-focused aspect of the event.

The organization announced that there will be nine performances of the Easter Play scheduled between March 30 and April 5, 2023. This annual event often draws large crowds and is a significant tradition within the local community. The performances will take place at the Igreja da Cidade, which has a capacity of 5,500 attendees, maximizing the opportunity for the community to engage with this cultural and religious spectacle.

The Easter Play not only reflects the spiritual importance of the season for the community of São José dos Campos but also serves an altruistic purpose by facilitating food donations for those in need. This dual focus on celebration and charity underscores the event's role as a beacon of hope and solidarity within the local population, encouraging communal participation and support for the less fortunate.
