19 dumb show

1) немая сцена; пантомима, немое представление

Police, "thick as blackberries in September", made possible the first performances of the ‘Playboy’ at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, but even then the actors might just as well have performed in dumb show for all the audience heard of what they said. (‘Daily Worker’) — Первые представления "Повесы" в дублинском театре шли в сентябре под усиленной охраной полиции; и все равно стоял такой шум, что артисты на сцене могли бы с равным успехом играть молча.

2) мимика, жесты, знаки

Then, on the motion - made in dumb show - of Doctor Parker Peps, they went upstairs... (Ch. Dickens, ‘Dombey and Son’, ch. I) — Затем по знаку, данному молча доктором Паркером Пепсом, они отправились наверх...

Penelope: "Dickie adores me..." Golightly: "But has he told you so?" Penelope: "Oh, no, we're not on speaking terms at present." Golightly: "Ah, I suppose you express your mutual affection in dumb show." (W. S. Maugham, ‘Penelope’, act II) — Пенелопа: "Дикки обожает меня..." Голайтли: "Он тебе сказал об этом?" Пенелопа: "Нет, мы же сейчас не разговариваем." Голайтли: "Так вы, значит, выражаете взаимную любовь мимикой и жестами?"

But the baby set such a resolute howl that she retreated with much dumb show of goodwill and warnings against Mrs Blunk. (J. Lindsay, ‘A Local Habitation’, ch. 1) — Но тут Бетт подняла такой оглушительный рев, что миссис Уиклоу сочла за лучшее удалиться, знаками изъясняя свое благорасположение к хозяевам дома и предостерегая их в отношении миссис Бланк.
