  • A performance, in performing arts, generally comprises an event in which one group of people (the performer or performers) behave in a particular way for another group of people. Sometimes the dividing line between performer and the audience may become blurred, as in the example of "participatory theatre" where audience members might get involved in the production. Singing choral music, and performing in a ballet are examples.
