This is the mime book for someone who learns by seeing and doing. Through 45 detailed scripts, the future mime learns the vocabulary and scope of the art. From a child eating ice cream to a sports fan, the reader sees examples of mime in the mind's eye. There is almost no theory in this book, just good, practical scripts for one, two, or more actors.
It is better to invent your own routines, there is no technique, no history of mime, not much of value.
I teach a mime class. I needed scenes for my students to do. This hits the spot. This book has saved me time from creating my own stuff.
This book is ok. It has alot of routines, but not much help on how to teach mime.
Product was what I expected I plan to use during church event all other products i am able to use to increase my mime skill
