Medieval plays were called "morality plays". The characters in the morality plays were personifications of good and evil, usually involved in a struggle for a man's soul. These plays were used by the Church to inform illiterate people of how they should live their lives. The form was static, but it's popularity contributed significantly to the later secularization of European drama.
