York Mystery Plays and the YMPST
Keeping the story alive
Supporting and maintaining the community tradition of the Mystery Plays in the city of York.

Plays Productions
Resurrection for York took place on 3 & 4 July 2021 in Resident’s Garden, Dean’s Park, York. This was a community, outdoor, production between the Trust, York Festival Trust and York Minster. It was staged on two wagons, in an enclosed area, in order to meet current national guidelines.
Coming next: St Crux, 24 November 2023
We have a new date of Friday 24 November! So fingers crossed that all the security work at the entrance to the Shambles has finished and St Crux can function again. All you lovely people who volunteered to man the stands, work in the cafe, bake goods and donate – we need you!
Please contact us to arrange a drop-off or collection of donations.
We need: Bric-a-brac, paperbacks, DVDs. We’d welcome donations of cakes, scones, biscuits, home made jam and chutney.
Christmas is coming soon after St Crux! So we’d love some Christmas goods to sell – decorations, possible gifts, cards. Have an early look in the loft and see what you can spare!
Please no: text books, cookery books or coffee table books, toys, clothes or electrical goods.
The York Mystery Plays Supporters Trust
YMPST was set up after the 2012 York Mystery Plays in Museum Gardens. We are a charitable incorporated organisation which exists to advance the education of the public in the medieval Mystery Plays of York.
