York Mystery Plays, ruins of St Mary's Abbey, York, 1951. Performance. The York Mystery Plays were traditionally presented on the feast day of Corpus Christi (a movable feast on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday, between 23 May and 24 June). They were performed in the city of York, from the mid-fourteenth century until their suppression in 1569. The play cycle was revived in 1951 for the York Festival of the Arts, part of the Festival of Britain celebrations.
