An Evening of Mime
with Maia and Jamin
Friday, April 9 / Saturday, April 10
Doors 7:30 | Show 8PM
Tickets $20-40
Meet Maia and Jamin- a dynamic duo of mimes with tales to share and an axe to grind against spoken language. In a series of solo vignettes and duets, their physical prowess and style will captivate your eyes and stretch your imaginations across comic scenes of botched surgeries, bumbling vampires, technological uproar, and more hilarity. But what happens when the power of language drives them apart and tries to overthrow their silent revels? How can these two overcome the temptations and subterfuge of the written and spoken word in order to preserve their art and friendship? Bring your brains and find out in An Evening of Mime with Jamin & Maia!
Jamin Bio:
Jamin is a mime, Shakespearean actor, and instructor for stages and classrooms across the Bay. His original works use mask, mime, puppetry, and poetry honed into musical burlesque, silent stories, physical theatre plays, and video sketch comedy. A passionate educator, Jamin teaches courses and workshops in mime, mask, acting for the stage, and stage combat locally and abroad. Jamin has been seen in plays and Vaudeville acts at Church of Clown, The Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Marin Shakespeare Festival, Shotgun Players, The Curtain Theatre, 6th Street Playhouse, North Bay Cabaret, and The California. Look out for his upcoming Mime, Mask, and Movement course- an intensive workshop for actors, clowns, and theatremakers at Church of Clown in May and June.
Maia Deutsch
Maia Deutsch is confused. Is she a clown? A mime? A San Francisco-based musician and performer dabbling in weird and experimental theater? An amateur puppeteer? An aspiring accordionist? An alumna of the San Francisco Neo Futurist collective, a washed up former improv queen, a reluctant tech worker who feels the world needs more love and fewer apps? Or is she actually the mega-pop-star Madonna in disguise? Nobody knows. But I can tell you this: you should see My Lil’ Guy, her mime and clown epic about gender absurdity playing at the Church of Clown in January. Xoxo.
