Wakefield Cycle

The "Wakefield Cycle" is a late medieval cycle of Mystery Plays belonging to the broader genre of English religious drama, distinguished by its unique collection of thirty-two pageants produced in Wakefield, Yorkshire, and notable for its distinctive poetic structure, vigorous vernacular dialogue, and the so-called "Wakefield Master" authorship attributed to several of its most celebrated plays.
