Thomas:
Regarding Augustine on Theatre, see also his <<Confessions>>, III.ii.,
and following, where he seems to indirectly criticize Aristotle on catharsis.
Unflattering references to at least one aspect of Roman Theatre permeate
<<The City of God>>, but see esp. II.viii and following.
I don't have it at my elbow, but I wonder if Jonas Barish's <<The
Antitheatrical Prejudice>> might not give you bibliographic references to
the sources you seek.
