Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

In the conventional account of English dramatic development, the interlude bridges medieval religious and moral forms and the fuller secular drama of the Tudor stage. Its compact dramatic exchanges and more individualized characters make it the immediate transitional form intended here. Liturgical, miracle and morality plays represent earlier stages in that schematic sequence.
