The world's most famous mime, Marcel Marceau, will make a rare New York appearance (his first since 1995) for a two-week run at the Sylvia and Danny Kaye Playhouse, March 18-28. The twelve performances will be split into two separate programs. Program A will feature the American premiere of The Soliloquy of Three Poor Souls and an early piece, Bip Looks For a Job. Program B includes a revival of Seven Deadly Sins (last seen in New York in 1964) and the New York premiere of Bip Remembers, a look at growing up in the beginnings of a war-torn century.
