The Rehearsal Room provides a reader but actors can also choose to use someone from the group or provide their own reader. Actors audition in a studio space with only the casting director and the reader present. The other actors in the workshop watch the auditions on a monitor in another room. This makes the audition experience similar to real circumstances and provides a good environment to both test your skills and learn from others.

These workshops are designed to be a productive environment in which actors can build skills, gain experience and also promote their skills to casting directors. The space between workshops gives room, if necessary, to improve skills after notes have been given by the Casting Directors during their sessions.
