  • prepare students to use mime or pantomime on stage


Procedure:

  1. Students participate in "Silent Scenes" in Drama Kids sessions. Mime is a theatrical technique used in these situations. Drama Kids are pushed to construct a character in a scene supplied by their teacher without speaking. They must act out this scene to music, using facial expressions, body movements, and gestures to convey their character's emotions.
