Mime

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The film, at least, is filled with mime, and uses a simple, plain circus set, costumes, and make up, dancing, announcements, and fragments of nursery rhymes and American songs and melodies. Are these features not mentioned because they have no reliable source? Sad. David Spector (user/talk) 19:05, 19 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

The features you mention were present in the original West End production as well. They were probably not added to the article because nobody saw fit to add them. Be daring.

Unfortunately, this show is pretty well forgotten. It is built around numerous out-of-date stereotypes, and would require a significant re-write to be relevant to today's world. Although I am quite certain that this could be done, it either hasn't attracted attention from someone capable, or the Newley estate (or Bricusse himself perhaps) won't let it be touched. That's what's sad, IMHO. GodaiNoBaka (talk) 20:10, 12 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
