Ever heard of practice makes perfect? Well one of the biggest reasons for having a dress rehearsal is to improve the production and make sure all the bumps and bruises are smoothed out.
The most talented people practice – that’s how they get to be where they are. It may seem unnecessary sometimes, especially if it already seems so perfect, but it never hurts. This unwavering dedication to better themselves can inspire the audience to keep practicing in whatever they love to do.
Dress rehearsals are extremely vital to the overall production of a show. While it benefits the people apart of the event, it is also good for others to sit in and watch a rehearsal. The practice-makes-perfect mantra can easily be implemented in all aspects of life from students to workers. On top of it all, seeing the family aspect and all the respect the cast and crew show another is an inspiring thing to see.
Grand Canyon University offers preview nights for Ethington Theatre productions. It is on the day before opening night, Thursday at 7 p.m. and is open to the students and staff. It’s a great opportunity for people who couldn’t obtain tickets to the regular shows or have a conflict in schedule. Be sure to stop in to support the local arts, get a peek behind the scenes and have a lot of fun.
