The mime in dance requires abundant expression and imagination. It also helps the performer express the human emotions and produce effective works of art.
The mime in dance is a kind of dramatic technique and an essential requisite along with the movements of dance, for the mime of a dancer in a work plays a role of a medium in expressing the theme, through which the contents of the work are conveyed.
A dancer's way of expression has had a tendency to be duplicatde through the course of understanding and repeating the way of his or her masters. However, recently there have been many efforts to develop a creative pattern of expression.
The creative pattern of expression covers both physical and psychological factors, and the study of the mime can be regarded as one of the resolutions for expressing accurately and beautifully the gestures and attitudes of a dancer, following the pattern.
The aim of this study is to reflect on the role of the mime, which can produce a proper way of expression for a dancer only by hard training. As for the metholology, the physical training course by the Grotoweski system is introduced in order to increase the practical understanding of the purpose of the training and the course of expression.
