Silent Light

Several years ago I attended a regional Christians in Theatre Arts conference, where I saw the mime group Silent Light. I've never liked mime. I've avoided it like the plague as a director and as a spectator. But the stuff I saw that mime troupe perform was simply amazing. The actors were gifted storytellers who used music and movement to move their audience. This was not human video; it was true drama.

And most impressive of all... all the actors, except for the teacher/director, were home school students.

Silent Light travels the world, performing where ever they can and putting ministry first always. They are affiliated with the Master Arts Theatre in Michigan. You can read more about them at

Make you wonder what you could do with your students, doesn't it?
