We perform a selection of plays from one of the four most complete cycles each year: 15th century York corpus christi plays, Chester, Wakefield (also known as the Towneley Cycle) and n-Town (also known as the Ludus Coventriae or Corpus Christi Plays). n-Town text which is believed to be a touring play script of East Anglian origin. These productions take the story as far as the Nativity of Christ using a selection of individual scenes within the one-and-a-half hour duration of each performance. Although we use electric lighting and the church's organ, in all other respects we try to be as faithful as possible to the original medieval production style. The dialogue is very much as it was five hundred years ago, using original texts adapted only for length and to clarify meanings for present-day audiences.
