Re-educating an audience is not an easy task. There are many avenues open to us, so many voices competing for our attention that we are sometimes overcome by confusion. Many audiences are educated on the mediocrity of television and can't hear the silent communication of the artist. By Samuel Ben-Or Avital We live in a time of rapid change, when evolution of thought and consciousness is proceeding by leaps and bounds. A mime shouldn't concern himself with how the audience is going to react. When the artist performs, he imprints visions, ideas, images on the plate of consciousness. The audience is like a sensitive plate of consciousness. "Mime expresses images on the visual level and sound on the inner level. But communication is also more than just physical movement.

It is known that words are just one of the ways to communicate, to become one with another. It offers special directives for mime, movement students and professionals in the form of exercises, class lectures, and selected writings of contemporary mime artists and students, but its real outcry is that it searches for artistic excellence. It goes well beyond the basic discussions of classical mime techniques and theory.

This book is a unique integration of ideas and experiences touching the very heart of mime and movement theatre.
