The Rehearsal TV show preview

The Rehearsal is set in a world where nothing seems to go your way, which sometimes could mean the current world we live in. As such, Nathan Fielder gives people the opportunity to rehearse moments and events so that things really work out, for a change.

With a construction crew, a group of actors, and seemingly unlimited resources, Fielder allows ordinary people to prepare for their own lives’ biggest moments by practicing them in carefully crafted simulations using his own design. HBO did not state whether The Rehearsal is scripted or more Fielder’s Comedy Central show, Nathan For You.

Fielder stars as himself, as well as serves as the series writer, director, and executive producer. Christie Smith and Dan McManus also executive produced for Rise Management. Fielder is also the executive producer of How To… With John Wilson, continuing his collaboration with HBO with The Rehearsal.
