Abstract
The paper holds the review on the expression of religious theatre in theory as well as indicates characteristic educational strategies of the contemporary Christian theatre in Lithuania. The two types of sacral performances – the ones based on the lives of the saints, and the ones re-enacting Biblical events – are viewed within the historical and theoretical context of the sacral theatre, and comparisons are drawn between the strategy of recollection, modern man's attitude towards the realm of modern concept Ordo amoris and the classical strategy of repetition Theatrum Mundi, formed by the educational Jesuit theatre. In the course of the present analysis, the Christian theatre is treated as educational theatre of memory, the mnemonic strategies of which represent the transformation of repetition into recollection.
