Pantomime To accompany Text pp.28-29, and teacher notes The word "pantomime" originates from the Greek words pan and mimos, "all imitating". Performances of pantomime in Ancient Greece were a popular form of entertainment that typified comedies and tragedies. In Roman civilization, pantomime was performed as part of regular theater.

Pantomime in the Renaissance In 15th century Italy, as ballet grew in popularity, pantomime added dimension to characters like the villains in Swan Lake or Nutcracker Suite. Also, scripts written by ancient poets were readapted as stories portrayed by mimes. From the 16th through the 18th centuries, pantomime spread throughout France and England as entertainment during intermissions of operatic performances.

Silent Film Stars Charles Chaplin, in the early part of the 19th century created characters like "The Tramp" in silent films. Silent films relied heavily on the ability of the actor to project facial expressions and exaggerated gestures that communicated ideas and themes in each film. Other famous silent films stars are Buster Keaton, Laurel and Hardy, and Harry Langdon.

Marcel Marceau Marceau was born in Strasburg, France. He imitated silent screen artists. Marceau's most famous pantomimes include, "The Mask Maker", "Walking Against The Wind" and a summation of aging man. Marceau is considered the icon of pantomime in the world of entertainment.

Pantomime Today Today pantomime, is often seen as a mix of movement and visual art, using props, masks, body movement, and light and shadow to create unusual shapes on stage that dazzle the imagination. Mime has come a long way from the ancient Greek comedy and tragedy pantomimes and remains an important form of expression and movement in the theatrical world. Today, pantomime is taught as part of dance and drama training.

New Pantomime Artists Mummenshanz is a new type of pantomime group started in the 1970’s that combines pantomime techniques to create unique performance art.

The Blue Man Group The Blue Man Group is centered on a trio of mute performers, called Blue Men, who present themselves in blue grease paint and wear latex bald caps and black clothing. Blue Man Group's theatrical acts incorporate rock music (with an emphasis on percussion), odd props, audience participation, sophisticated lighting, and large amounts of paper.

Cirque du Soleil The company has more than 4,000 employees from over 40 different countries. Cirque du Soleil’s mission is to invoke the imagination, senses and emotions of people around the world.
