l teatro poi - quello scritto e non recitato (la Cena Cypriani per esempio) e quello recitato e non scritto, i Mummers plays e i cicli delle corporazioni - era tutto una esibizione di peccati, irrisione di santi e di virtù, vanità, racconto di "vicende scellerate o oscene", come diceva già sant'Agostino, e infrazioni clamorose delle leggi quotidiane. I contadini e i servi nei Mummers plays mettevano in scena una satira dove, rovesciando il mondo, per una volta all'anno si prendevano gioco dei signori. Sul palcoscenico dei matrimoni e anche dei funerali veniva umiliata la virtù della modestia e trionfava la vanità.

rappresentazione muta
Mummers' Play, traditional dramatic entertainment, still performed in a few villages of England and Northern Ireland, in which a champion is killed in a fight and is then brought to life by a doctor. It is thought likely that the play has links with primitive ceremonies held to mark important stages in the agricultural year. The name has been connected with words such as mumble and mute
