Presented by Joyce Coleman, Bambas Professor of Medieval English Literature and Culture, University of Oklahoma. Medieval drama was the original street theater—acted by local citizens, performed on wagon-stages that moved around the town. Come learn about it all by participating in or watching mini-productions of The Second Shepherds’ Play, The Play of Noah, and other medieval hit productions! (All the plays will be in modern English translation.)
