About the festival

London International Mime Festival (LIMF) was founded in 1977 by producer, Joseph Seelig, at the instigation of mime-clown, Nola Rae.

It is the capital's longest established international theatre season.

Taking place each January, its programme spans the spectrum of contemporary visual performance including live art, physical and circus-theatre, mask, puppetry, movement and object theatre.

For 2021, the 45th year of London's annual festival of contemporary visual theatre, the festival will be screening free-to-view videos of shows from past editions of LIMF, by very kind permission of the artists, running an extended workshop series with live and online classes, plus we'll be hosting a series of talks.
