rehearsal hall

Where performers prepare

A rehearsal hall is a large room or building where performers practice before a production.

Theater companies, orchestras, ballet troupes, and bands use rehearsal halls to work through material away from the main stage or recording studio: The cast spent six weeks in the rehearsal hall before opening night.

The space typically offers open floor area and basic acoustics rather than audience seating.
