The phrase Performing arts constitutes a collective term for all arts utilizing live performance of any kind (song, music, dance, movement, theatre, acrobatics, etc) as part of a performance or event. It is often used in contrast to creative arts, though the performing arts often involve visual and aural art forms in costume written or oral texts, set and costume designs, soundscapes, etc.
