FAQ

What is The Community Sing Through?

The Community Sing Through is an event where we learn the music for an entire show in 1.5 days culminating with a sitzprobe with a full orchestra after the second day of rehearsal. Sitzprobe is a German word which means "seated rehearsal" and is a traditional theater term for a un-staged sing-through of the entire score. The upcoming performance will be Titanic. We won’t be selling tickets or advertising the performance. The goal of the sing through is to learn and perform a musical theatre piece purely for the love of performing!

When and where is the community Sing Through?

The Community Sing Through will be May 22nd & 23rd at the First Unitarian Church of Philadelphia, 2125 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19103.

Let’s Talk Money!

Made of Star Stuff Theatre Collective is a non-profit theatre company and this project will use the “pay-what-you-can” model for all participants. There is absolutely no obligation to donate in order to participate, however, our costs include two meals, the performance rights, materials, and various other behind the scenes logistics. All staff for this event are volunteers and any additional funds will go toward future similar events! We are suggesting a donation of $50, however, is truly only a suggested donation amount. Donating more or less is totally up to you and is appreciated.

Is there a schedule?

Short answer is, we’re working on it! The dates are locked in, May 22nd & 23rd, 2025. We are working on exact call times but generally, we ask our participants to hold open Friday, May 22nd from 7:00 - 10:00 and Saturday, May 23rd from 10:00-9:00. Friday’s rehearsal will likely not include all performers, but expect to be with us all day Saturday. If you are unavailable on May 22nd, please indicate this on your submission form and we should be able to accommodate you. However, Saturday, May 23rd is a mandatory rehearsal. Saturday meals will be provided and the final performance will be May 23rd from 7:00-9:00.

How much preparation will be required?

We’ll be working fast so any prep ahead of time will make your day that much easier and more fun. We hope to send out materials roughly 6-8 weeks in advance and would expect everyone to at a minimum look through the score at home and be familiar with it prior to arrival.
