Religious Theatre

Religious theatre refers to performance arts created to express spiritual beliefs, stories, or teachings associated with particular faiths. Often rooted in rituals or sacred narratives, it aims to inspire devotion, educate followers, or communicate moral lessons. Historically, it has included biblical plays, passion plays, or dramas portraying religious figures and events. These performances serve as a means of cultural preservation, communal engagement, and spiritual reflection, blending artistic expression with religious intent to deepen understanding and foster collective identity within faith communities.
