		When Marceau performs with his ensemble company, the first act is usually a selection of solo Style Pantomimes and Bip pantomimes, and the second act involves the entire company in the group performance of a mimodrame.
		When Marceau first presented these and his own similar works, they were essentially short demonstrations, or "exercises", as Marceau calls them, whose purpose was to show the audience the wonder of the technique of mime, and allow them to appreciate this aspect separately from any dramatic context.
		Marceau compares Bip to Don Quixote, always in search of adventure, and battling the windmills of life against which he is powerless.

		Marceau studied with two of the great French mimes, Charles Dullin and Étienne Decroux (along with Jean-Louis Barrault and the ART's Alvin Epstein, who were in his class).
		The most virtuosic pieces are the ones in which Marceau plays the entire cast of characters, especially in his classic "The Public Garden." Beginning as a statue that comes to life and steps down off its pedestal, he becomes the parade of persons in the park.
		Marceau's movements are a mastery of economy and detail: a single gesture delineates exactly what he means you to believe.
