Here's a general Wikipedia entry on Medieval Theater: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_theatre

Here's the Wiki for The Castle of Perserverance, an early morality play (and with the earliest known drawing of a stage set): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_theatre

And here's the Wiki for the York Mystery Plays: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_Mystery_Plays

Yeah, I know, Ickypedia. Still, these should make a good departure point for further research.
