Religious Theatre
Religious theatre refers to performances that are rooted in the beliefs, stories, and rituals of a particular faith. These productions often aim to convey spiritual messages, explore moral themes, or reenact sacred narratives. Examples include the Passion Plays that depict the life and crucifixion of Jesus Christ and various Nativity Plays celebrating the birth of Jesus.
Such performances can be found in many cultures and religions, including Hindu dramas that illustrate tales from the Ramayana and Mahabharata. Religious theatre serves as a means of worship, community engagement, and education, allowing participants and audiences to connect with their faith in a dynamic way.
