Yes, temporary stages erected on wagons during fairs and pageants to put on mystery and miracle plays were the forerunners of temporary stages erected in innyards, which led in turn to the design of the Elizabethan playhouses such as the Rose, Swan, Hope and Globe.
A pageant wagon was used as a place for actors who were not associated with the church to perform. It was basically a stage on wheels. The players (actors) would take their pageant wagons all over Europe and perform to the public. The plays were usually presented in a comedic manner and that is why lots of people would go and see the performances.
It doesn'tSimply put Greek theatre is the reason we have theatre today. It's said that theatre started the moment a member of the Greek chorus stepped out from the other and sang on his own. So much of the theatre that is done today is meant to hark back to the time when the art was just beginning to be created. The Greeks where also the first to use the wagon on stage, not to mention they had the ability to fly people onto and off of the stage using a giant crane. We also have a hard time mastering the acoustics of a Greek theatre. In allot of ways we are still trying to be as good at theatre as the Greeks where. Most importantly we still use the Greek plot structures in the plays that are written today.
