In the first book-length study of the English saint play across the Reformation divide, this book recovers the surprisingly long theatrical life of the saints. It shows how saints in performance frequently diverged from religious narratives in the Middle Ages and also made a spectacular reappearance in the theatre of Shakespeare's time.
