The animator chooses a simple story he will have to mimic to launch the game.

Example of a sketch: a person takes his motorcycle, arrives in front of a store, returns, asks a person if they can take identity photos, the person s 'Assist on a stool, remakes, arranges his jacket, pressing a button, 1, 2.3 then hop, jumps because of the flash, then the person gets up, awaits his photos, recovers them, looks at them a little 'Air disappointed, pays, then resumes his motorcycle.

1) Explain that we need 3 volunteers. These 3 people (A, B and C) will have to reproduce a saynet.

2) (B) and (c) come out of the play space (they can wait in the neighboring room)

1. The host mime for the first time the scene to the player (A)
2. When the host has finished mimicking the story, he asks (a) to mimic the sketch he has seen, in the presence of (b) who Returns in the play space for this. No oral explanation is provided on the Sketch at that time.
3. Then (b) will mime the scene in the presence of (c) in a third step, always without oral explanation, only by the mime
4. Then (c) mime the sketch he observed from the player (b) but he explains orally, in Same time as he mimics, each of his gestures, according to what he understood
5. At the end, we can realize that the Sketch was well depleted by most of her mimes. It's time to explain the Sketch to everyone.

CONCRETLY:

Why does the 3rd actor often find it difficult to understand what is the sketch he is about to reproduce?

Forgotten details, poor understanding of the previous actors, too fast gestures, ...

TO GO FURTHER:

Give examples of everyday life where you have received information that has been distorted by the person who told you.

#rumours#incomprehension 

- Incomprehension: In the game "Mimes en série", the distortion of the "message" produces a really amusing skit which, by the end, is often completely misunderstood. In everyday life, many messages are also misunderstood and therefore badly relayed, but they often retain a verisimilitude that encourages us to believe them.

- Different media: whether in writing, physically as in "Mimes en série", orally by telephone for example, or visually via social networks, there is a high risk of misunderstanding or misinterpretation. 

On social networks, for example, you can get the impression that influencers know how to do everything, that their life is incredible and heavenly. But the reality is often quite the opposite. These same influencers may lack self-confidence, be unhappy, have no real friends...

- Rumours: inaccurate information spreads very quickly on social networks. Often inaccurate information is "scoop", and people love to share scoops and relay them on social networks.

Good advice: always check whether the information is true before sharing a post.

When it comes to your friends, don't listen to rumours, prefer a good face-to-face discussion with your friend to better help and understand them.

Install young people in a column. They must all turn their backs.

We give a mime (expression, film name, object, character etc.) to the first player in the column.

He must then turn, invite the other player to turn to him, and mimic him the mime received. This second player will then do the same, turn and mimic the third player, etc.

The last player will have to guess the mime.
