"Street Scenes" offers a theory of late medieval acting and
performance through a fresh and original reading of the "Tretise of
Miraclis Pleyinge." The performance theory perspective employed
here, along with the examination of actor/character dialectics,
paves the way to understanding both religious theatre and the
complexity of late medieval theatricalities. Sharon Aronson-Lehavi
demonstrates the existence of a late medieval discourse about the
double appeal of theatre performance: an artistic medium enacting
sacred history while simultaneously referring to the present lives
of its creators and spectators.
