Hi community! I need your help. I am auditing our rehearsal schedules to try to advocate for adjusting our production calendar next year. My questions are:
1) How many hours do you rehearse a musical before tech? During tech? And how many weeks is that over?
2) How many hours do you rehearse a play before tech? During tech? And how many weeks is that over?
Or if you want to share a sample rehearsal calendar with me, I'll take that too!
Thank you!
