Mime show 'plague' sweeps theatre

A PLAGUE will strike the Fringe Club on September 31 and October 1 as part of an innovative performance by the Fringe Mime & Movement Laboratory.

The show is set in an old building, filled with strange tenants who refuse to communicate with one another.

They seem to be suffering from the plague, as they either struggle or die off.

The Fringe Mime & Movement Laboratory was founded in 1987 by renowned mime Philip Fok.

It aims to promote mime as an art form and develop a brand of mime with an oriental flavour unique to Hong Kong.

In this performance, audience members will see the artists use their body movements to present a full-length show.
