Elixir Mime Workshop for the DeafAfter experiencing how well deaf people could act, it has long been a dream to get a mime training program for the deaf up and running. We called this program Elixir, because the Elixir is a magical substance which heals wounds, gives life, and creates wealth from something common. This is what our story telling through mime hopes to do both physically and psychologically.
