Want to learn your lines? This is the app for that. Rehearsal, is the professional tool for actors and other members of the production crew to organize their scripts for auditions and working on set. Battle tested in Hollywood by actors on shows like Heroes, LOST, Desperate Housewives, Psych, Gigantic and more. And it's just $20.

"I love this app! Rehearsal lets me learn my lines in the car while I drive to work. It already saved my a** when I was thrown a major new dialogue scene 45 minutes before we started shooting it. I plugged the new scene into Rehearsal and I was off book by the time I got out of the make up chair." -Clark Gregg (Desperate Housewives, New Adventures of Old Christine)

"I am very pleased with the results of using Rehearsal so far. It is a powerful tool in preparing for auditions, or for days of work, especially when I am pressed for time. It is easy to use and I have no doubt that as it evolves, it will be a part of my work process for a long time." -John Carroll Lynch (Shutter Island, Fargo)

I'm always apprehensive about buying an app because I feel like you never know if you'll really like it once you start using it. I am SO GLAD I bought Rehearsal 2. It's SO EASY to use...if you have any questions, there is a help section with clear, succinct explanations including how-to videos! (What is easier than that?) I have a lot of trouble memorizing, and this made it SO much easier. If you take casting director workshops, do scene study, and/or audition, this app is for YOU.

This is a terrific, and terrifically useful, app. It really does cut down on the time it takes to memorize lines and has a number of really great and helpful features. I especially like being able to record the scene, then play it back in my car via Bluetooth. Now all that time spent in my car driving to and from auditions is time well spent in preparation. The help resources are great, too, with clear and concise written and video tutorials. David was even kind enough to sit down with me and provide an in-person demo. Definitely one of the best $20 investments I’ve made!

I love this app. It's been incredibly helpful to me over the past year, and David backs it up with fantastic support videos and tutorials. The best part? Showing it to friends. The ooohs and aaahs never get old :-)

I absolutely LOVE this app! I don't even fully utilize all the features, but I find it incredibly useful when I am preparing for an audition. I've never been able to get off book in the car before... and now it's simple!

This is easily the tool I use most when trying to learn my lines. It used to be anyone I could grab who was willing to sit with me - now I can do the heavy lifting on my own. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this app and I recommend it to every actor I know. I also teach acting classes and use this app on my iPad to cut down on printing out hundreds of scripts and sides. It is amazing! And so is it's fabulous creator, David!!

Rehearsal is one of the best Apps ever for the iPhone for an actor. David has really nailed it with all the things it can do. Now that it has the ability to pause and rewind it is amazing. So thankful that it only cost $20. No need to worry about how many scripts I can input. He did away with the monthly fee and script charge from the previous version and it much faster now. You can run lines anywhere and my wife loves it because she no longer has to run lines with me. I highly recommend it to all my fellow actors I come in contact with. Enough said. Buy this app.

Great, great, GREAT app - and looks gorgeous, too! David's patiently walked me through the app and answered my questions - and he refunded a friend who just didn't understand the app and thought that it was confusing. Really sounds like Anonymous not only didn't buy the current version of the app, but didn't even try to download the older free version.

Bottom line: don't trust a Ghost that can't stand behind their supposed opinion of something.

I love this app, and recommend it to friends ALL the time. I use it to memorize any and all lines, AND I know people who even use it to record and submit VO auditions! I love that my iPhone version Bluetooths with my car speakers, so I can memorize while I commute! If I can figure it out anyone can. :) Very helpful "help" section is included, and the graphics are clear and beautiful!

This app has cut my memorization time in half, allowing me to really focus on working the scenes without script in hand. I've recommended this app to everyone I coach.

Easy as pie! I learn my lines on my way home from the dayjob and then am ready to prep for the next day's audition when I get home. It cuts my prep time in half and there are all kinds of fancy things you can do once you explore it. Big Fan and if you're confused, David is super awesome about sitting down with you and teaching you all the ins and outs.

This is an EXCELLENT and totally useful app. that is easy to use. I think the reason that it is so useful is that the app was developed by an actor FOR actors - which makes it incredibly intuitive. I live at the beach and it's so convenient to run my scenes in the car on the way to the auditions. It has paid for itself several times over in a relatively brief period of time. David is a really smart guy, and buying the app for $20 makes you feel the same!

Rehearsal is an awesome app for actors who need to learn their lines "on the go." It's so convenient and completely idiot-proof. I need that!

I love rehearsal. I use it all the time. Memorizing was always a big issue for me and sometimes it's a challenge to find someone to rehearse with. Rehearsal helped me so that when I'm auditioning, I can focus on the character I've created and not the words thanks to the awesome loop feature. And I just love the little email from the Rehearsal staff to break a leg.

Thanx a bunch David.

It's confusing and too expensive. Customer service guy is a know-it-all that is more arrogant than helpful.

Owner Reply:Aug 01, 2011

If you could be more specific about what was confusing to you, I'd be happy to try and help you out. And please don't mistake any of this as arrogance - we have a great relationship with our users, and I'd love to have the same with you.

As for price, Rehearsal used to be absolutely free for 30 days, just so you could try it out, with usage purchased within the app, after the free trial period. But our pricing plans seemed to confuse actors, so we polled our users and offered various one-time payment price points and asked their opinions. While we found that the majority of users would have paid far more for the app than $20, that seemed to be a no-brainer price for over 90% of the actors who responded, so that's what we went with. Since we made that switch late in 2010, the $20 one-time payment price has been lauded as a bargain by those that have said anything about our pricing in their reviews.

As for me being a know-it-all, I'll actually wear that badge proudly. I try to be as informed and informative as possible about performance, the business and when generally helping other actors achieve their goals. More arrogant than helpful, though, is an opinion I don't think many would share. I have had a lot of fun with my clients, students, peers and audiences. But I'm not arrogant at all about my work - if anything, the opposite. I'm grateful for the success I've had, and love sharing both the best practices and the sometimes painful lessons I've learned over my career, including working with Rehearsal.

Again, If there's anything I can do to help you with your use of Rehearsal, I'll make you the same offer I make all of my other clients: write me at davidlawrence@gmail.com, or call me directly at 818-326-7700. I'm happy to spend as much time with you as you like.

I used rehearsal constantly for scene class - had to have new scenes up three times a week and it was a godsend!

I used Rehearsal for the last 5 episodes of Heroes I shot this year, in beta form, and it was awesome. But Rehearsal's users, like Desperate Housewives' Clark Gregg say it best: "I love this app! Rehearsal lets me learn my lines in the car while I drive to work. It already saved my a** when I was thrown a major new dialogue scene 45 minutes before we started shooting it. I plugged the new scene into Rehearsal and I was off book by the time I got out of the make up chair."
