"Robert Rivest created a Comic Mime and Improv Workshop for my Tween Group at our public library, and it was amazing. He somehow managed to keep a dozen 8 to 12 year old kids active and engaged on a Zoom presentation, no mean feat.

The kids loved partnering up to learn different elements of mime, such as building walls and pulling on ropes; they had fun with facial expressions, games, and playing at being robots.

The program was fun, engaging, and the kids were really excited about showing off their new skills after the program ended. I would strongly recommend this program for the 8 to 12 age group, and although I am sure an in-person event would be marvelous, don't let yourself be limited by distance, and go ahead with an interactive Zoom presentation - it was great."
