Ok so I am currently taking a drama course and next week I am supposed to present a short solo pantomime (no talking) but I'm having a really hard time coming up with ideas that: a) I can portray on my own without interacting with other live people, meaning that I'm not relying on anyone else's actions to provide context (other people can be implied), and b) does not require any verbal explanation!

Anyone have a good plot idea for me?

Battling internal conflicts or dilemmas

Arriving to a wedding mismatched clothes, two diff shoes, something backwards, everyone laughing, only realizing later.

Any blips flops can be funny

Any shlimazel scene, like arriving to airport and only realizing later that your we missing you passport

A lady who lived in a shoe and didn't know what to do.....meaning a mom or babysitter that trying to juggle the needs of all babies at a time but not managing using bunch of dolls.....like running to one because that one is crying, but just dropping to the floor or throwing the one your hand. Or trying to hold a bunch at time. Feeding with apple sauce one, but dripping down baby, in meantime instead if cleaning up baby, trying to burp one but no place to hold in front, hang thar baby off your back. Maybe with a rope or pulley in meantime trying to pick up another one. Putting one in bath and leaving and water overflowing and forgetting in mean time smoke alarm goes off because food is burning on stove , and then get entangled in the telephone wire.

Maybe you can even attach a bunch of hands or gizmos to yourself like octopus trying to juggle everything together like cooking cleaning, childcare....

Like a shlimazel balebuste or babysitter with too many kids
