Welcome to the York Mystery Plays Supporters Trust
A group of volunteers supporting and maintaining the
community tradition of the Mystery Plays in the city of York -
"The Plays are a physical manifestation and an intellectual manifestation of our culture and heritage, in the streets or in the Minster, and by York’s communities; volunteering and participation being an absolute bedrock of our culture."
Jane Gibson, CEO of Make it York -
"The notion of a community owning a narrative tool is the key to the strength of the Mystery Plays."
Damian Cruden, Artistic Director of York Theatre Royal -
"The profound dualism of the Mystery Plays; the struggle between good and evil is played out... That’s at the heart of the dynamic of the Plays, and I think that’s entirely relevant to people who are living in hard times and in a world where we are struggling with war."
Vivienne Faull, The Dean of York Minster
