Mysteries
Personally I felt that the series of plays were very informational. I liked seeing a lot of the major events from the Bible being reenacted. I would like to see the same series of plays shown today and compare the differences. The mysteries we watched were from the eighties if I am correct, and I think it would be good to see the mysteries performed today in 2007. The picture, scenery, performance, characters, props, language, would all be different and maybe somewhat the same. The main thing that I would see being different is the dialogue and the form of language. The humor behind the characters and there lines would be used differently. Overall I liked seeing the stories of what happened being performed in front of me. Most of them were exactly how I imagined them happening in my head which was interesting to see. Hopefully there will be another mysteries showing from today’s time.

I agree it was informational, however I found it was more informational about the medieval interpretation of the bible rather than the actual bible. M'hound, or Muhammad was not part of the bible, they would not have referenced him.
I also liked how it used Bible stories. Many of these stories I have thought about in my head, but never really seen in action. Therefore, it was interesting to see how my imagination and the actual performance were compared. I enjoyed the movies and think it would be interesting to see a performance of the movies in today times. I think a lot of the things would be the same as far as language goes, but some of the staging would be diferent i would envision.
