Note[edit]

Some of the information that has been put in in good faith is not correct.

Maria Carmi alternated with Lady Diana Manners in the Broadway production at the Century Theater in New York in 1924.

The following is a clip from the New York Times, January 24, 1924.

Maria Carmi, known also as the Principessa Matchabelli, played the rôle of the Madonna in "The Miracle" for the first time last night at the Century Theatre and achieved an instantaneous success. An audience that filled the theatre, many of the members of which were viewing the production for the second time, found her interpretation of the rôle fully as satisfying as that of Lady Diana Manners, although differing sharply in detail.

Instead of standing during the forty-two minutes that precedes the coming to life of the Madonna, Maria Carmi is seated on a throne. The coming to life of the statue becomes a formal and detailed ceremony, and the feeling of statue come to life is never lost at any time during the performance. While presenting a graceful figure, the actress nevertheless manages to retain something of the ethereal and spiritual.

Maria Carmi will play the rôle again tomorrow night, at which time Lady Diana Manners will be seen for the first time as the Nun, hitherto played by Rosamond Pinchot. This arrangement will be repeated at the matinee on Saturday, and at the night performance Lady Diana will again play the Madonna, with Miss Pinchot once more as the Nun.

Next week Maria Carmi will play the Madonna on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights and at the Saturday matinee, with Lady Diana in the rô1e at the other performances. Miss Pinchot will be seen as the Nun except on Wednesday night and Saturday afternoon, when Lady Diana will have the part.

Also the Nun was a different character played by Rosamond Pinchot. One reason that it appears that Maria Carmi did not play the role is that the Internet Broadway Database only gives the credits for the opening night, thus Diana Manners. http://www.ibdb.com/production.asp?ID=9459 Chris 21:59, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
