Answer to Question 1

Today the term mime refers to silent or nearly silent performances and the actors who create them. The mime begins with a narrative, an idea, or an image and then gives physical life to that concept. Mime performance is created through improvisational trial and error until a performance text is concretized into fixed patterns of movement. Most often, the author of the movement text is also the performer.

TRUE
