In this DVD, the third in the "Mastery of Mimodrame" series, we join Todd and Marilyn as they continue their Master Class in mime. Together with the students you can develop physical mime technique, building on the teaching from the previous videos, learn to communicate your ideas to an audience, and begin to apply these skills to a performance.

In a workshop taught worldwide, these noted mime artists teach advanced concepts of mime technique developed by Marcel Marceau and Etienne Decroux. This program studies the following techniques in depth: hand designs to create the illusion of a hat, jewelry, sewing, painting, typewriting, oration, caressing, serpent, angel, commands; marches such as march on two points, feline march, tiger; the Theory of Axis (Decroux); Projections and Translations; and Pivots. Each technique is introduced and explained step-by-step and is shown clearly and slowly. A booklet outlines these concepts and explains their history and theory. An excellent resource for learning advanced mime technique.
