The Second Shepherd’s Play and Mankind
Directed by Paige Dunckel
The Second Shepherd’s Play – one of the most well-known Mystery Plays from the period depicting the lives of three shepherds just before the nativity. Known for its blend of religious theme and regional humor, this is one of several plays included in the Wakefield Mystery Cycle. Each play in the cycle depicted a story from the bible and toured through small towns and villages. Written between 1475-1500.
Mankind – written around 1470, this morality play is often considered one of the most humorous and controversial plays to have survived the period. The story follows the character of Mankind and his temptation into sin by characters representing four worldly vices.
