Jamin Jollo
Jamin is a theatre maker and mime artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Influenced by artists such as OSF fight choreographer U. Jonathan Toppo and master mime James Donlon, Jamin explores physical theatre through mime, mask work, and calls upon neoclassical clown training to devise theatrical shows ranging from original burlesque songs to featured characters in stage plays across the U.S. He spent much of his childhood on Mexico beaches battling coconuts in palm trees and arm-wrestling hermit crabs. Many hermit crabs won. From the springs of this play, Jamin forged a strong connection between the physical, tactile world and his own imagination. Recalling days of archery with illusory enemies in the sand, he channels his childlike wonder through the creation of mimodramas and clown routines infused in theatrical shows to excite and inspire audiences of all ages. |
