1.3.2.3. Mime (Gesture and Facial expressions)

Mime is a type of acting using only gestures and facial expressions. According to Alton

(2002), “A gesture is a form of non-verbal communication made with a part of the body, used

instead of or in combination with verb communication.” Facial expressions are also simply

known as the expression on a person's face, resulting from specific use of the facial muscles.
