The Fall and Redemption of Man

This moving and vibrant adaptation into modern English of the mystery plays of Chester, Coventry, Lincoln, Norwich, Wakefield and York shows a group of young actors presenting a mystery play from a pageant wagon. Dressed simply in black and white with minor changes to define new characters, they trace history from the creation to the crucifixion. Serious students of the texts may be either vexed or amused at the way lines from the various classics have been selectively used in this stunning Morality Play for the modern age.
