Magic: A Fantastic Comedy - Play by G. K. Chesterton

Magic is a play by G. K. Chesterton presented by Kenelm Foss at The Little Theatre, London in 1913. The play went on to influence Ingmar Bergman's film The Face (Wikipedia)

George Bernard Shaw goaded the already successful essayist and novelist Chesterton into trying his hand at a play, with this result.

The play examines the powers and mysteries of faith, belief, religion, and of course, magic - a mixture that should be familiar from many of his Father Brown stories. The play's success convinced him to write a couple of other later plays.
