Mimes Don't Only Play Air Guitar

After 5 arduous days of rehearsal/creation for a show in April, all of us Magenia students went out to boire un verre. 
Sometimes the work never stops...here, two mime etudiants are having a contest: Who can continue this particular hand motion the longest?  This hand roll, with your thumb held tight against the side of your hand, is useful for creating flickering flames and water. 
Yes, mimes are allowed to use real props.  One 2nd year mime is playing some Brazilian tunes here on her guitar.

  1. I'm liking the little snippets of life in Paris! I want to see some of your miming moves next, por favor!

    Also: Can't wait to see it in person!
