The performing arts include a wide range of artistic endeavours that are performed in front of an audience. The term includes widely recognised performing arts such as theatre, drama, music, dance, circus, opera, mime and musical theatre, pantomime but can also include professional wrestling, stand-up comedy, marching band, and other similar artistic activities.

An artist who practices one or more performing arts is called a "performer". Common occupational titles include actor, comedian, singer, dancer, musician, and juggler.
