This work has grown out of the question regarding the negative relationship of the Church Fathers toward the Roman theatre and the apparent subsequent theatre vacuum of over 400 years (ca. 530 AD to 930 AD). This is considered to be the time which lies between the end of the Roman theatre and the appearance of the quem quaeritis tropes. This work moves between these two poles: on the one hand, between the polemics against the pagan Roman theatre which the Church Fathers described as a theatrum daemonicum and on the other hand, the appearances of dramatic-liturgical configurations in the Christian Church. This work attempts to connect these two opposite poles instead of separating them. This study begins with an examination of documents dealing with the patristic polemic. This is followed by an examination in chronological sequence of the development of the liturgical dramatic manifestations from Jerusalem to Amalarius of Metz. It also examines the allegorical method connected with this development. In conclusion the argument is maintained that aside the theatrum daemonicum, a theatrum infictitium et sapirituale is beginning to develop.

The relationship between the Catholic Church and theatre has a long and complicated history. This collection of fourteen critical essays seeks to demystify the ties--both practical and ideological--that have long bound Catholicism to theatrical production. This volume offers insights into medieval theatre, Jesuit drama, ballet and opera, modern stagings of medieval liturgical drama, Lorca and Lope de Vega as Catholic playwrights, Italian Catholic women's drama, Catholic play-wrighting and acting, and the unique challenges of teaching theatre in Catholic universities.

Theology is inherently theatrical, rooted in God's performance on the world stage and oriented toward faith seeking performative understanding in the theatre of everyday life. Following Hans Urs von Balthasar's magisterial, five-volume 'Theo-Drama', a growing number of theologians and pastors have been engaging more widely with theatre and drama, producing what has been recognized as a

In 1616, the prominent theatrical player Nathan Field wrote an extraordinary letter responding to a personal attack--one wielded by the Reverend Thomas Sutton from the pulpit of a church frequented by Field and other Bankside actors. Considering Field's letter intertextually with other primary sources, this study examines how sixteenth-century English iconoclasm extended beyond the church to include the visual, literary, and performing arts as consistent subjects of theological controversy. This dissertation considers the relationship of Reformation iconoclasm to London's early modern theatre culture. It focuses on the relationship between the era's professional preachers and players from 1590 to 1620--three of the most dynamic decades for the era's prominent stage companies. Specifically, this study demonstrates how antitheatrical polemics are intrinsically related to English iconoclasm; reveals the clergy's implicit and explicit consideration of theatre as a threat to the church; determines how perfomers and audiences understood theatre as an edifying alternative to church; and accounts for how preachers and players differentiated between their respective professions. Using historical and intertextual analyses of literary, visual, and other primary sources, this dissertation demonstrates that church and theatre were competing kinds of performance in early modern England. Accounting for the ways in which preachers and players embodied their ideologies--while in the pulpit or on stage--further illuminates the historical relationship between church and theatre in the Reformation era. The striking convergence of religious and theatrical developments in Reformation England deserves historical investigation that deeply considers the important relationship between church and theatre, especially given their shared performative nature.

In 1945, the Irish Catholic Church began a unique relationship with the entertainment industry through an organization known as the Catholic Stage Guild of Ireland. This Guild, whose members included Jimmy O’Dea, Noel Purcell, Cyril Cusack, and Gabriel Fallon, acted as a microcosm of twentieth-century Ireland, dramatically depicting the heartaches and successes of the Irish Catholics. This unprecedented study of the Catholic Stage Guild begins an investigation on the contemporary relationship between the Irish Catholic Church and theatre that, until now, has rarely been examined. Written for those interested in theatre studies, Catholic studies, and Irish studies, the Catholic Stage Guild of Ireland’s persuasion over the theatre population both within and outside the country’s borders proposes a story long overdue to be told – until now.
