Quiet Humor

Marcel Marceau died this past weekend, after outliving his art form by nearly thirty years. He’s survived by his wife, _________________, and their children, _____________ and ________________.

Marceau’s death comes after a period of declining health during which he ultimately stopped pretending to eat bananas or any other imaginary food. The last time he was seen in public, he seemed a shell of his former self, limping along an avenue in Paris with the help of an invisible cane. His health problems had long impacted his work, as audiences were underwhelmed with his “Rolling a Wheelchair in the Wind” routine.

His funeral is slated to include a nation-wide Moment of Talking, after which he’s expected to be buried in an imaginary glass box.
