Pantomime originated in ancient Roman theater, evolving from the "pantomimus," a solo dancer who conveyed stories through expressive gestures. It gained popularity in Europe during the 16th century, particularly in Italy with the commedia dell'arte. The modern form of pantomime, characterized by its blend of music, dance, and humor, took shape in Britain in the early 19th century, becoming a traditional Christmas entertainment.
