An introduction to the elements of mime and non-verbal storytelling.
This workshop caters specifically to deaf people and to hearing people who already know Auslan well, such as those with deaf family members, interpreters etc.
The aim of the workshop is to introduce essential principles of mime and creating invisible worlds. The art of mime empowers performers and storytellers to create dramatic, comic and compelling non verbal theatre.
YouR tutor: James Kerwin
James performed mime in his early life and appeared on Young Talent Time (Network 10) as a contestant. James has worked as an actor with the Australian Theatre of the Deaf in Sydney and Mercury’s Wings Theatre Company on the Gold Coast.
James’ return to mime saw him undertake training with Broken Box Mime Theatre and online with Lorin Erin Salm (Mime Theatre Studio, Los Angeles). James has also trained in Clown with Andrew Cory (Jesture).
“As a deaf person myself I have great desire to inspire other deaf people to embrace mime as performance” – James Kerwin
