run-throughs
A "run-through" is a practice session where performers, such as actors or musicians, go through a piece of work from start to finish. This helps them become familiar with the material, improve their timing, and identify any areas that need adjustment. Run-throughs are often used in theater productions, rehearsals, and music performances to ensure everyone is on the same page.
During a run-through, the focus is typically on the overall flow rather than perfecting individual parts. This allows the cast and crew to see how the elements come together, making it easier to spot issues that may arise during a live performance.
