What is a "rehearsal"?
A rehearsal is a practice session where performers, such as musicians, actors, or dancers, work through their material in preparation for a public performance or production. During a rehearsal, the participants go over their roles, refine their timing, and address any issues with their performance. Rehearsals are essential for ensuring that all elements of the performance come together smoothly and that everyone is well-prepared for the actual event.
