Mime Handbook: A Handbook for Mime Corporel

English

By (author): Amos de Haas Frits Vogels

Translated by: Pieter Smit

The Mime Handbook covers the theory of mime corporel (Corporeal Mime) and explains the technique through dozens of clearly illustrated exercises. It provides an overview of the work and life of Etienne Decroux (1889-1991), founder of the mime corporel and father of modern mime. Building onto Decrouxs mime corporel, additional concepts are introduced on the use of space in physical theater and the creation of mime performances.

Mime corporel is a physical theater technique that has revolutionized the physical expression for actors, dancers, and mime players. The philosophy of Etienne Decroux has permanently influenced approaches to performance, the use of space and the study of movement composition in the theater.

The Mime Handbook is intended for anyone who creates, studies, or teaches physical theater. Directors, actors, dancers, mime players, and performance artists will discover fundamental ideas and techniques that will enrich their work.
