walk through
Initial dry rehearsal
To walk through something is to go through it step by step, explaining or demonstrating as you go: Let me walk you through the installation process.
A walkthrough is the resulting guide or explanation—a detailed breakdown of how something works or how to complete a task.
In theater and film, a walk-through is an early rehearsal where actors move through their blocking without full performance.
To walk through a performance is to do it mechanically, without energy or commitment.
