Inside the Rehearsal Room

Six weeks, one room, and the unglamorous work that makes opening night look effortless.

Studio A stage

Rehearsal is mostly repetition. The same eight bars, the same entrance, until the body stops having to think about it.

Week one

The first week is spent around a table. No blocking, no movement, just the text and a lot of arguing about what a line actually means.

By week four the set arrives and everything learned in the abstract has to survive contact with a real staircase.
