Minster 2016
The plays were staged again in York Minster (for only the second time) from 26 May 2016 (the feast of Corpus Christi, the date of the medieval Plays) to 30 June, the longest-ever run. The Dean of York said the Minster had been privileged to be the Plays' guardian for a season.
Director Phillip Breen and producer Nicky Corp recruited actors and actresses from across the region both to take part in and to support the production: there was only one paid professional actor in this production, Philip McGinley playing Christ, left.

Some fifty were children/young people. Another 200 people took roles such as administration, building the set, making props, or as wardrobe assistants, seamstresses, backstage crew, steward.
