The correct answer is:

Drama from A.D. 500 to A.D. 900 was essentially dormant outside the church.

Following the fall of the Roman Empire, structured drama became nearly nonexistent until the recovery of theatre in the Early Middle Ages, beginning around 500 C.E. The survival of Greek and Roman drama traditions and plays were entirely reliant on the church. To keep up with the complex and theatrical celebrations seen in pagan religions, the church started producing spectacle performances. The processionals grew into the liturgical dramas of the high Middle Ages.
