SUMMARY:Shawn Wen
DESCRIPTION:Praise for A Twenty Minute Silence Followed By Applause \n“Threading the subtle seam between what lives and what remains\, A Twenty Minute Silence Followed by Applause succeeds in conjuring the poetry of Marcel Marceau’s performance as both a character on stage and in history. . . . Like pulling a ghost from a dark room\, this is an accomplished work of historical portraiture: precise in its objects\, complex in its melancholy\, and insightful in its humor.” Thalia Field \n\nAbout A Twenty Minute Silence Followed By Applause \nA fledgling radio producer\, Shawn Wen became fascinated by the one subject who seemed impossible to put on air: French mime Marcel Marceau\, the internationally acclaimed artist of silence. At the height of his fame\, Marceau was synonymous with Bip\, the red-lipped\, white-faced mute in a sailor suit who conjured scenes\, stories\, and sweeping emotion through the gestures of his body alone. Influenced by Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp\, credited with inspiring Michael Jackson’s Moonwalk\, Marceau attempted in his performances to reveal the fundamental essences of humanity.\nBeyond Bip\, Marceau was a Jewish Holocaust survivor and member of the French resistance; a bombastic iconoclast; a collector of failed marriages\, masks\, antique knives and doting fans; an impassioned workaholic who performed into his eighties and died deeply in debt two years after retiring from the stage. In precise\, jewel-like scenes and vignettes\, A Twenty Minute Silence Followed by Applause pays homage to the singular genius of a mostly-forgotten art form. Drawing on interviews\, archival research\, and meticulously observed performances\, Wen translates the gestural language of mime into a lyric written portrait by turns whimsical\, melancholic\, and haunting.
