Irod
- This is an article about a precursor to Romanian popular theater. For the antediluvian patriarch, see Irad
Irozii (singular Irod) were Romanian Orthodox minstrel shows, played in the Christmas season, centered on the figure of Herod the Great (Romanian:Irod) and the Massacre of the Innocents. Along with a New Year tradition of imitation peasant weddings, they are generally considered the origin of Romanian-language popular theater.
