Silent show (9)

I believe the answer is:

pantomime

(Other definitions for pantomime that I've seen before include "Cross-dressing theatrical" , "Seasonal theatre show" , "Play performed at Christmas" , "Traditional Christmas stage show with Dame" , "'Cinderella', for example" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
