Mime workshops

Rod Lara's Mime Workshops have been quite popular in both primary schools, high schools and performing arts schools.

Testimonial from a Penola Catholic College student (15/08/17):


"The incursion included songs with French instruments, sing-a-long songs, awesome dances that everybody joined in, and best of all, a real mime artist! He mimed to us many adventures and soon had all of us laughing, he was very convincing indeed!

Overall, it was an amazing and educational experience. Thank you."
