Today's mime workshop was cool.
Hot actually - since the electricity went off and we had neither ac nor fan but twenty sweaty kids in the room trying to learn mime and one sweaty me.
It was either the heat or fascination for the macabre, but I've never seen a bunch of kids so enthusiastic about fainting (which was the action-of-the-day). 80% of the kids had never fainted in their lives. Most hadn't even witnessed anyone fainting. But all fell to it with dedication. And an authentic job they did too! Legs crumpling up neatly beneath them, arms limp, face on the floor - I was impressed.
I suspected they were doing it because they got to lie on the relatively cool floor till they were "woken up". But I continue to remain impressed.
