Mime Fun Facts
Mimes often use a technique called invisible wall, where they pretend to interact with a non-existent barrier, creating the illusion that they are confined to a space, showcasing their mastery of physical expression and imagination.
Mimes communicate solely through gestures and facial expressions, relying on body language rather than spoken words, which allows them to perform in any language.
