Broken Box Mime Theater Presents: MimeFest!

BKBX is planning a three-day extravaganza to check back in with our friends and family, introduce ourselves to new supporters, and share some of our new work. A kids' day, three mime workshops, a mini-show, and perhaps a glass of wine or two.
Please come by and kick off the summer with us!
Schedule of Events
Sunday, June 9
2:30-4pm BKBXKids! Afternoon
We'll introduce kids of all ages to the wonderful world of mime! After performing a couple of kid-friendly pieces, the company will teach parents and kids alike the power of silent storytelling through an interactive and fun-filled workshop. Your imagination will get a workout!
Pay what you can at the door, suggested donation is $5 per child.
4:00-6:00pm Silent Storytelling Workshop
Dive into our unique ensemble‐driven devised process! In this workshop, we'll teach the basics of mime, as well as techniques to strengthen your skills as a silent storyteller. BKBX uses a variety of distinctive strategies, exercises, and games to devise vibrant and powerful moments on stage. Join us and deepen your craft, whether you are an actor, director, writer, or simply want to give it a try!
Bring comfortable clothes.
Monday, June 10
5:00-7:00pm Silent Storytelling Workshop
7:30pm New Works Performance, followed by an informal Reception
BKBX has been busily working on new work to share with you. This will be a shorter version of our full productions, clocking in at around 40 minutes, fully designed by resident designers Jamie Roderick and Bennett Kuhn.
We have been blown away by the support of our BKBX community in the past, and would love to share the evening with you, with a proper toast after the show. (We have an honest-to-goodness pregnant mime, to boot! She will toast with an imaginary glass.)
