You know you love them! Post your favorite tongue twisters or warm-up/focus games here.

A personal favorite of mine: I am a mother pheasant plucker. I pluck mother pehasants. I am the most pleasant mother pheasant plcuker to have ever plucked a mother pheasant.

Woah. That's a tough one.
~Fill the sieve with thistles, then sift the thistles through the sieve.
~You know you need unique New York
~I am not a fig, nor a fig plucker's son, but I'll pluck those figs till the fig plucking's done.

She stood on the balcony inexplicably mimicking him hiccuping and amicably welcoming in.

That one's not so much tricky as nit-picky. You can go around the circle and say it one person at a time to keep people on their toes, too.

Sadly enough, I still have trouble with "Red leather, yellow leather."

I didn't know there was more to it. We always just said it "You know you need Unique New York"

We always say 'You know New York, you need New York, you know you need unique New York.'

Another fun one is:

What a to do to die today at a minute or two 'til two. A thing distinctly hard to say, but harder still to do. And to beat at tatoo at a minute to two with a ra-tata-tatata-tatata-too. And the dragon will come when he hears the drum at a minute or two to die today at a minute or two 'til two.

That one's awesome!

Recently, I have watched my friend try and teach that particular tongue twister to small children. So, here's that tongue twister as said by a five year old:

What a to do to ahnunuhnuh.. to two to two. A didinctly dinuhnuh nah nuh nuh... xd

I love the mother phesent plucker one. The first day we did it, no one got it right.

One I remember is : To sit in solum silence on a dull dark dock, in a pestulencal prision with a life long lock, awaiting the sensation of a short sharp shock, from a cheap and chippy chopper on a big black block. Short sharp shock. Big black block.

((By the way, I can't spell at all so I am sorry if you cant understand.))

That's my favorite, too.

We always do "Unique New York," The Viking Chant and a few others that I can't remember now.

Hmmm. We like to say that theatre is really about those things. Plus pillaging. Pillaging is everything.
