초록

This study analyzes the multi-layered meaning of ritual as a theatrical mechanism, and through this, the analogy between theater and ritual in the contemporary American playwright Sarah Ruhl’s Passion Play (2010). Through theoretical considerations on the origins of rituals and plays, this study examines the use of dramatic devices such as secular and religious, daily life and the stage, and then it expands the analysis into Young Jean Lee’s Church (2007) to explore the political nature of the ritual.
This study also tries to re-examine the meaning of theatrical rituals by analyzing the aspects of this conflict brought to light by Passion Play and exploring the point where the representation of the play and the religious representation interlock and separate. While Ruhl’s Passion Play is set in a ceremonial space during the political turbulence from the Middle Ages to the 1960s, Lee’s Church combines the political and religious debates and issue of justice faced by modern American society. Ultimately, this study aims to gain insight into the ritualistic nature of art and reality, as well as politics and religious representations.
