N-Town Plays
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The N-Town Plays, Ludus Coventriae cycle or Hegge Cycle are a cycle of 42 medieval Mystery plays from between 1450 and 1500. Their name derives from a passage in the opening proclamation for the cycle to "in N. town" - when the plays toured from town to town, N. (meaning nomen, the Latin for name) would be replaced by the name of the town the cycle was playing in at any given time.
