The wordless communication of thoughts and feelings, expressed only through the movement and gestures of the body, is the essence of pantomime. Considered by many the most difficult of the performing arts, pantomime is not only an art in itself, but also a basic underlying element of almost all facets of the performing arts. Pantomime: Elements and Exercises provides an introduction and guide to the essential elements and the specialized exercises of this "art of silence."
