Le Mime et L'Etoile
Le Mime et L'Etoile is one of Puy du Fou's newest big shows. In 1914 you attend the shooting of a new film. In 2024 the show was named best show in the world in Los Angeles. The show lasts 28 minutes.
The story
Working on set are rising film star Garance and the young, dreamy mime Mimoza. Director Gérard Bideau is convinced that only true love can bring colour and sound to the black-and-white silent film. Mimoza pulls out every trick and illusion to win Garance's heart. Then the shoot is interrupted by a dramatic event.
The experience
The show pays tribute to the belle époque and the birth of cinema. The set is an entire street: facades and shop windows glide past the audience while 120 characters walk across a moving floor. This creates the feeling of a camera shot almost 2 kilometres long. Everything is in the style of a black-and-white film, with real characters in real sets.
