When were Miracle morality and mystery plays developed?

These are terms from the Medieval period of European drama. * A Miracle play is a play that contains the instance of a miracle such as Christ restoring the sight to the blind. Supposedly the term could be expanded to include cultures in excess of Christianity but as the term is already archaic the realm of its application is rather set. This however doesn't restrict anybody from trying to expand it. * A mystery play (in the context that we have established here) is a play which attempts to explain or explore what were/are considered Christian mysteries, such as the nature of sin, the difference between men and women, etc. * A Moral play is one that attempts to teach some moral lesson. This term actually precedes Christianity, was popular in Ancient Greece but has come to be more associated with the medieval Christian era.

What best describes the mystery play or miracle play?

Mystery Plays are plays that are adapted from stories in the Bible. They reached the heights of their popularity in the Middle Ages when most people were illiterate and the church was using them to teach Bible stories. Miracle plays are plays that are based on the lives of the saints. Since one had to perform miracles in order to be elevated to sainthood, plays which depicted stories about the saints' lives became known as Miracle Plays. Together they are sometimes referred to as Liturgical Plays.
