During a sitzprobe (or “sitz”), the production cast and orchestra musicians run through the performance together as a single unit for the first time. The focus of a sitzprobe is solely on the musical elements of the production—staging, blocking, lighting, special effects, and other technical elements are usually entirely absent. The sitzprobe is about making sure the orchestra and cast are operating in unison before moving on to the next stage of the production’s journey. If you want opening night to go off without a hitch, a sitzprobe rehearsal is an absolute necessity.
