Micah and Laura Bertin believe the mime is the “mirror of life”,
reflecting everyday feelings and situations. They consider
themselves storytellers, using their bodies and faces rather than
words. They are entertainers, inviting the audience to see
themselves in the characters rather than scratching their heads
trying to figure out what’s going on. .Among the classic
stories/skits they will present are: “On the Subway”, where a couple
falls in love; “At the Zoo”, roar with laughter at the antics of a
monkey interacting with a little boy; the first visit at “The
Dentist”; be touched by the bittersweet “Toy Shop”; be amazed at
what happens to a thief who steals a golden “Mask”. Their show
incorporates music and props and a highlight is always bringing
people up on stage for hilarious audience participation.
Micah and Laura have been performing since 1977. They have traveled
to all 50 states and throughout Europe,
and spent almost 3 years as featured entertainers for Carnival
Cruise Lines. Laura has also branched off to create a solo show,
geared for school assemblies, called “Mimely Yours, Laura” |
