- What was that supposed to be?
- (laughs) A angry parrot.
(laughter)
(happy suspenseful music)
(knocking)
- (both) Come in.
(gasp)
- Oh, I know mime?
(gasp)
- What's a mime?
- A mime is like a person who pretends like there's stuff
there when there's not, but don't talk while doing it.
It's kind of like a game of charades;
where you can't say, you have to just show it.
Ice cream.
(laughter)
- Take a lick!
(laughter)
- What gave you the idea of being a mime?
Oh when you were young
you were walking
until you saw like, a mime acting.
- Did it make you happy?
- What was your very first trick you did?
Trying to get away but you can't let go of the rope?
- Cut
(laughter)
- And you fell down.
- That was weird.
(laughter)
You get tired?
(yawn)
(snoring)
Okay she does get tired.
Do you have a voice?
Can you talk in your voice?
- Okay.
- She speaks!
- Yay!
- What's your name?
- I'm Sarah.
- Hello Sarah.
- Hello.
- My name's Crystal.
- Hi Crystal.
- My name's Kristen.
- Hi Kristen.
- Was it hard to not talk?
- That wasn't too hard, you asked lots of fun questions
and we interacted a lot without me talking.
- How can you do it so good without talking, like no sound?
- Well sometimes I do make sound,
like I'll do movements and then
(squeaks and honks)
Part of why I can do that is cause I studied
mime and physical theater so I got to practice a lot.
Like if you want to say,
I am eating a sandwich, but you can't use words
you could just go
(biting and chewing)
- Do you ever do a show as a mime?
- No, I've done shows where I use a lot of mime
but I haven't done a show that's just mime.
Like sometimes I do shows with masks and then we use
mime to help show who the mask is.
- Did you say mask?
- Yeah, sometimes I make masks and perform with masks.
Do you want to see some masks?
- Yes please.
Did you make those?
- Mm-hmm, yeah.
- Those are really cool.
- You want to try it on?
- Yes please.
- Yeah.
(clucking)
- Can I try a chicken too?
- Yeah.
- It looks pretty funny.
(clucking)
(laughter)
(clucking)
(laughter)
- That is really good!
- Thank you.
- Kristen can we see you as the grandma?
- Okay.
(laughter)
- Can you open your mouth a little bit?
Can you open your mouth up?
- Ahhh.
- Yeah.
- I am a grandma.
- Is my hair in? How's my hair?
- Grandma is that you?
- Oh, thank you for joining me here.
Are we dancing?
- Yes.
- Oh boy.
(laughter)
- Thank you for showing us the mask.
- You're welcome thanks for playing with the masks.
- Was this fun you guys?
- (both) Yeah.
- Was it hard at first?
- Yeah. - No.
