February - 4 March 2017
Entertainment throughout the ages has brought wonder, happiness, and
amazement to people of all nations. The performers of this amusement
were known by many different names: acrobats, tightrope walkers,
jumpers, stilt walkers, illusionists, barkers, animal tamers,
fighters, minstrels, jugglers, puppeteers, troubadours, dancers,
tumblers etc. At f́rst these men and women entertained the public in
outdoor spaces, such as squares, plazas and piazzas. They traveled
between farmyards and the courts. Their sophisticated performances
such as jokes, songs, animal and magic tricks were many times shunned
and banished in the rural areas. However, in the towns and cities they
were welcomed and abetted. On stage the three main themes were:
mysteries, romance and life lessons. In the circus their acts animated
the public and kept them entertained by making the impossible,
possible. Therefore, to tell the complete story of the basic human
need for entertainment, one needs the public square, the show, the
masterpiece, and finally me, the MIME.
