Pre-Elisabethan theatre refers to the theatrical traditions and performances that occurred in England before the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, which began in 1558. This period includes medieval mystery and morality plays, often performed in churches or public spaces, that focused on religious themes and moral lessons. Additionally, the influence of classical Roman and Greek theatre began to emerge, leading to the development of early forms of secular drama. The transition into Elizabethan theatre marked a significant evolution in style, content, and the professionalization of actors and playwrights.
