Playing the "Distorting Mirror" Improv Game

Video Transcript

"Hi, guys. We're here today learning how to do some improv warm-ups, and now we're going to teach you the warm-up "Distorting Mirrors." If you've been following our video series, you've seen us demonstrate to you how to play the theater game "Mirrors." Now we're going to show you how to distort characteristics of that game.

At this point in time, in the original game, one player would be mirroring the action of the other.

I think you'll understand once you see us play. And that's how you play "Distorted Mirrors.""
