Sitzprobe. What the heck is that?

Sitzprobe. It sounds like something uncomfortable that probably happens in a doctor’s office. But it’s not. It is actually something really fun and magical. It is the special day in the life of musical theatre rehearsing when the cast and the orchestra get to meet and play together. Our trusty videographer Walt Babinski was on the scene and captured some of the magic.
