• We kindly remind you that it is not a technical rehearsal but a rehearsal for your speech and the content of your presentation.
• Please be on time and keep to the 20 minutes (5 minutes to let people in and out of the room) allocated in order to be fair with the other producers rehearsing after you.
• Producers with a presentation for a project in concept will have a 10 minutes rehearsal.
• Please inform your co-producers, if any. Note that it does not replace the technical meeting.
• We have tried as much as possible to organise your rehearsal in the same room as the one of your presentation. For those it was not possible to do so, we recommend you to visit "your room" before your official presentation.
