Marcello the Mime

Marcello the Mime is a Melbourne silent performer who combines classical and contemporary mime with magic and balloon modelling. Facial expression, still poses and physical imitation provide much of the comedy, while a kazoo and balloon dog can become part of his roving encounters. Marcello has performed around Australia and offers both shows and walkabout entertainment. His magic is presented visually, with balloon creations used as props in routines or given to younger audience members.
