FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS​

​​

• NYC Rehearsal/Performance Date Obligations:  Rehearsals will be held at Pearl Studios NYC and begin Wednesday, June 7, 2023 at 9am local time and end with the performance on Saturday afternoon, June 10, 2023.  Cast members should expect to be in rehearsals for large blocks of time between 9am-6pm, Wednesday - Friday.

 

Your performance on Saturday, June 10th is a matinee performance. You will be finished by 4:00pm. This gives cast members an opportunity to see even more of the city that evening, and celebrate with family and friends post-show! You will not be required to attend anything after that 4pm end of show, so if you need to fly out that evening, you may.

​

• Cast & Creative Team Meet & Greet:  We are hosting a casual meet & greet in the hotel on Tuesday evening, June 6, 2023. Given our 9:00am start time on Wednesday morning, we anticipate that all cast members will have arrived by Tuesday. This meet & greet will be an opportunity to meet the artistic staff, pick up your *swag bags,* meet the other cast members, and ask any questions prior to the start of rehearsals.
