Change part of play in religious festival (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

passover

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'religious festival' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'change part of play' is the wordplay.
'change' becomes 'pass' (passing is a kind of changing).
'part of play' becomes 'over' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'pass'+'over'='PASSOVER'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for passover that I've seen before include "religious festival" , "Disregard - Jewish festival" , "spring festival" , "feast - with 25a" .)
