BKBX activates the imagination of our audiences, contemporizes the art of mime, and reminds us all of the power of simple storytelling. BKBX (Broken Box Mime Theater) is a contemporary physical theater company that tells original stories beyond language barrier. Set to rich lighting and a heart-thumping soundtrack, our narratives range from realistic to metaphorical, heart-wrenching to hilarious, and cinematic to intimate, held together by a dedication to the empowered imagination and the collective artistic voice of our diverse company. Based in NYC and founded in 2011, BKBX is reimagining the medium for contemporary audiences, redefining mime through the lens of US-American theater. BKBX has received New York Innovative Theatre Awards for Outstanding Ensemble, Outstanding Performance Art, and Outstanding Choreography/Movement, and the Golden Lanyard award for highest-grossing show of our venue of the Minnesota Fringe.
