In both American and Brazilian contexts, 'run-through' is widely used in theater, film, business presentations, and educational settings. In Brazil, 'ensaio' is the most culturally aligned term, particularly in dramatic arts, while 'passagem' is used more in technical and broadcasting contexts. The term reflects a common practice in professional environments where rehearsal before actual performance or presentation is standard protocol.
