About
Two wild strangers roll into York for the 2026 Mystery Plays Fringe, and the tales they tell are about to turn the city upside down.
Join Riding Lights Theatre Company for a new production of Dario Fo’s explosive satire. With ferocious wit and fearless physical storytelling, this production tears into faith, power, profit and hypocrisy by turning ancient bible stories into urgent, laugh-out-loud theatre with a clear spiritual heart.
Written by Nobel prize-winning playwright Dario Fo and translated by Ed Emery, this hilarious take on the Mystery Plays is the perfect fringe choice for those who like their comedy with a bit of bite. Directed by Paul Birch.
Sharp, subversive and unapologetically now.
MISTERO BUFFO is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French, Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
