The fake MIME museum by Mitani and Suzuki. This is not for guide of all histories of MIME. MIME is very popular and yet there are many misunderstandings. There are some books about MIME history on the desk. Texts of Etienne Docroux & Marcel Marceau by their interviews and Mitani are set on the wall with their portraits. At all times, Mitani plays as a security guard. His MIME starts and finish suddenly, and he come back as a security guard.
