Residency in The Rehearsal Club offers an opportunity for women forging a career in theater, film and TV to live at an affordable rate in midtown Manhattan at the new Webster Apartments at Found Study. Modeled after the original Rehearsal Club, which became a theatrical legend for its impact on generations of women in theater, television and film, the revived club provides modern, private rooms at a discounted rate, along with additional benefits, such as professional workshops, mentoring, and networking opportunities.
Contrary to myth, The Rehearsal Club was neither a conventional “club” nor a star-making machine. From the start, the club’s mission was simple: to support young women of the professional theater until they were fully independent. It created an atmosphere that inspired its residents in pursuit of their common interests and goals. Along the way, they helped one another develop the grit, wit and imagination necessary to carve their niche in the performing arts. Today, that bond still remains!
TRC residents are selected based on talent, passion, and commitment. Admissions are juried through a virtual audition process. TRC’s Residency Program requires residents to sign a Guest Agreement for six months of tenancy, which may be renewed. Rental rates are well below the current rental market in New York City. Also required is a security deposit of half of one month's rent, a $50 application fee, plus a $39.99 credit check fee. The $39.99 credit check fee will be charged directly to the applicant by Rentberry, a contracted credit review company. A one-time amenity fee of $100 is charged to each resident by Webster Apartments.
WE ARE FULLY BOOKED THROUGH 9/30/2024. HOWEVER, APPLICANTS ARE WELCOME TO APPLY FOR PLACEMENT ON OUR WAITING LIST BY SENDING AN EMAIL TO: INFO@REHEARSALCLUBNYC.COM
In addition to Performing Artists, TRC will be expanding its Applicant pool to include young women in ALL theater, TV and film disciplines, including writers, composers, directors, choreographers, designers, stage managers and production assistants. As our alum Carol Burnett says, “When you have a dream that big, you have to go for it”.
