👉 Mime math is a system used in mime and physical theatre to translate spoken dialogue into physical actions, gestures, and expressions without words. It involves a standardized set of symbols and codes that represent specific movements, facial expressions, and body language, allowing performers to convey emotions, actions, and narratives purely through physicality. For example, a mime might use a specific hand gesture to indicate "hunger" or a tilted head to show confusion. This system ensures clear communication and understanding between performers, even in the absence of spoken language, making it an essential tool for storytelling and emotional expression in mime.
