Katherine de Sutton was Abbess of Barking Abbey, Essex, between 1358 and 1376. Although little is known about her life, she showed a keen interest in the potential for liturgical drama to stimulate the souls in her care out of the spiritual sloth that she encountered as abbess at Barking. The drama is preserved in The Ordinale and Customary of the Nuns of Barking that was commissioned by Sibilla de Felton, Abbess between 1394 and 1419, and presented to the Abbey in 1404.
