Mystorical Plays - Home Page

Mystorical Plays is a site for the promotion of plays that are both historical and, in some sense, mysterious.

From the cloistered world of 16th century Winchester to the death of poet Arthur Rimbaud; from the mysticism of the Roman Temples of Isis to the life of Judas after the Crucifixion, these enigmatic plays share elements of religion and intrigue, mysticism and mystery.

If you are interested in staging one of these plays, please contact the relevant playwright via the email address shown on their website.
