Mime Troupe Seizes Time
DETROIT — Cold fresh breezes of incisive political analyzation have once again blown through muddied movement minds; the San Francisco Mime Troupe has returned. Not a cultural revolution, but the furthering of revolution in the form of culture seems to be their “most important product”.

The San Francisco Mime Troupe is a collective. Sharing experiences and bound together by a common ideology, Its members are free to perform various roles in tune with themselves and without the restrictions that individualist fame imposes. The heroine of the first act becomes chief carpenter when the stage is to be disassembled. All acts are preceded by the troupe forming a circle, forgetting the audience, and singing songs of liberation. This seems done more to re-establish the “rhythm” and togetherness of the group, than out of any attempt at “performance”. The collective is productive, together and totally without the elitism of superstars detached from the audience. Our group picked up on this right away and the troupe became no more a part of the performance than the audience itself. Therefore OUR movement brings us the San Francisco Mime Troupe. Fet us, the show, begin.
