Mystery Plays (or Miracle Plays). The terms ‘mystery’ and ‘miracle’ are applied loosely to the vernacular religious drama of the later Middle Ages, notably the English
Corpus Christi plays and the French Passion Plays. Much is uncertain about the origins of this type of drama, but the shaping influence of the Liturgy, especially that of
Holy Week and Easter, is clear. Vernacular paraphrases of the Bible and Gospel harmonies were more immediate sources. Apocryphal legends and the lives of saints were also dramatized. Performances usually took place out of doors. The plays were suppressed in the 16th cent., but some have recently been revived. See
DRAMA.
