Who are we? What is 044 Mime Company?

Our physical theatre is a space where movement, physicality and emotions become the main languages of expression, and the stage turns into a place of deep, intuitive experiences. From the very beginning, we chose a vector of development that combines the traditional means of pantomime with modern approaches to physical theatre. However, along the way, we noticed that pantomime as a genre did not give us the space for expression that we were looking for.

We are 044 MIME COMPANY - Contemporary physical theatre.

044 Mime Company is not just a name. Our name consists of a number and two words. This number 044 stands for the Kyiv area code, and we decided to keep a piece of Kyiv (Ukraine) in our company.

This is theatre where the body speaks more than words, and where every movement becomes a reflection of human experiences and thoughts. 044 Mime Company consists of three young artists: Kateryna Spodoneiko, Pavlo Vyshnevskyi, and Oleksander Symonenko. We graduated with a master's degree from the Kyiv Circus Academy and have been practicing pantomime for ten years.

PERFORMANCES

NEWS

The information around us shapes our worldview. What is right and what is wrong, fashion, weather, lifestyle, what to have for breakfast, do we make our own decisions or are they imposed on us?

Information is a powerful tool of manipulation, tons of unverified, shocking, stupid and funny news are poured out on people every day and tell them how to live their lives.

The pantomime actors reflect their vision of information influence, changes in relationships between characters through everyday news in an allegorical and comedic form.

About The performance

A story about a life that is always postponed "for later".The protagonist lives in a state of waiting: he works, plans, and builds for the future, but fails to notice the present slipping away. He is convinced that one day there will be time for joy, for rest, for truly living. But then, everything changes—one medical diagnosis forces him to confront a crucial question: what if that future never comes? What if "later" never arrives?This performance is not about death. It is about life—its fragility, its value, and its beauty in the simplest things. It is a story about all of us, because we all delay something important. "White Slippers" is an opportunity to pause, to see things differently, and perhaps, to start living a little more fully.This story is told not through words, but through movement. Dance, Mime, acrobatics—all these elements bring the protagonist’s journey to life, making it vivid and real. The performance blends drama and comedy, depth and irony, lightness and profound existential questions.
