The Miracle (play)

This article is about the play. For films based on it, see Miracle (disambiguation).

The Miracle (German: Das Mirakel) is a 1911 wordless play by Karl Vollmöller with integral and accompanying music by Engelbert Humperdinck as well as church songs and sacred chants. It is sometimes referred to as a pantomime; it is not considered a ballet, although it contains dance interludes.

Three movie versions have been made of the work, and one of these launched the career of the author's wife Maria Carmi, who went on to star in 25 silent films.
