An idea for a reformed "Passion Play"

Ok all tell me what you think of this idea.

A "Passion Play" where Jesus is never seen, therefore never has to be portrayed by an "actor". The story could be the disciples, Mary, Nicodemous, etc. telling the story to a live audience from first hand experience.

Some example

-Towns people react to Jesus having just passed through after the Triumphal entry.

-The Roman soldier reacts standing at the foot of an empty cross.

-Joseph of Arimathea reacts to using his tomb

-Mary reacts after having just seen Jesus before running off to tell the others.

...etc.

Could it work? Would it be "acceptable" if it did?
