Performance - 2.2 (Review: 8:46 A.M." - A Traditional, Serious Mime Sketch about 9/11)

Review: 8:46 A.M." - A Traditional, Serious Mime Sketch about 9/11

It starts with a man sitting down and he is wearing a mime costume. He is pretending to be on the computer. He is typing on the computer and then he picks the phone up. He then points at the computer screen as if someone called him to say if they have booked an appointment. After he puts the phone down, he looks away from the computer. He pushes the computer away and then he gets up and his facial expressions show how he is feeling. He looks like he is very shocked. He goes to the window and makes a plane action in the air to show the audience what he is looking at. He looked like he was looking at the plane crashing into the building. He moved his hands showing that there is a fire/explosion. He looks around everywhere. His facial expressions show that he is shouting at people in the building and telling them that there is a fire and telling them to get out. He is trying to get out of the building. He’s now going down the stairs. After that he is moving his head around showing us that he can’t breathe and there is smoke everywhere because he moves his arms around. He’s trying to help other people get out. He comes down to another floor and he is telling lots of people to get out because there is a fire. He stops and tells someone to get out but that person got hurt and can’t move so the man picks the person up around the back of his neck. The man shows how heavy the person is because he is leaning downwards and he is walking very slowly. He is also moving things out of the way to get out. While he is walking and trying to get out he looks to the top of one side as if some of the building is breaking down then he looks to the other side to do the same. Then he puts the person down to wipe off his sweat and then picks the person up again. He then looks back and sees more of the building breaking. He tries to hide with the other person.
