The Rehearsal

The Rehearsal is a continuous workshop that Bethesda Repertory Theatre provides once a month. These sessions offer a chance for artists to meet, collaborate, and work on original & published works. Our goal is to provide a space to create with other professional artists. Many of our Company members meet during these workshops, but we also open our doors to fellow artists who have an insatiable passion for discovery and demand for truth, camaraderie, and integrity. These sessions were born out of a need to create. Artists have gaps in between projects, non-artistic work to endeavor, auditions, and life in general. We offer other actors, writers, and directors a chance to consistently and actively work on their craft.

The Rehearsal IS NOT a class.

• There is no fee to participate in The Rehearsal as Bethesda Repertory fiercely believes that if any artist is willing to further their curiosity in their craft, our sessions should, consequently, be accessible and free.
• Each member of The Rehearsal is expected to come prepared with their text buried & interpreted, ready to work in a fully realized capacity, open to critique by discussion, and above all, willing to grow and push oneself.
• Participation in these workshops is limited, as smaller groups lead to more in-depth exploration, and ample time to work with your artistic team for the evening.
• The Rehearsal lasts from 3 to 4 hours, depending on group size and studio availability.

All Actors are welcome regardless of race, color, religion, sex, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or Actors’ Equity status. We do require our artists to be 18 years or older to participate.
