York mystery plays, 1998

This enchanting program revives the drama and pageantry of the medieval mystery play as performed by the venerable guilds of York, England. Perched atop pageant wagons in the streets of their home city, guild members and townspeople in period costumes enact scenes from eleven plays of the Corpus Christi Cycle: Creation to the fifth day, The creation of Adam and Eve, The fall of Adam and Eve, The flight into Egypt, The temptation, The agony in the garden and the betrayal of Christ, The death of Christ, The harrowing of Hell, The incredulity of Thomas, The ascension of Jesus Christ, and The last judgment. An introductory segment sets the stage.

These short plays were performed and staged by both the York guilds and local theatrical companies and were recreated, for the most part, using technology that would have been available to the guilds in the 16th century. Plays portray Biblical scenes and stories from the Creation to the Last Judgment."@en
