Performing arts are art forms in which artists use their voices and/or the movements of their bodies, often in relation to other objects, to convey artistic expression—as opposed to, for example, purely visual arts , in which artists use paint/canvas or various materials to create physical or static art objects . Performing arts include a variety of disciplines but all are intended to be performed in front of a live audience.
Artists who participate in performing arts in front of an audience are called performers. Example of this include actors , comedians , dancers , magicians , circus artists , musicians , and singers . Performing arts are also supported by workers in related fields, such as songwriting , choreography and stagecraft .
A performer who excels in acting, singing, and dancing is commonly referred to as a "triple threat". Well-known examples of historical triple threat artists include Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, and Judy Garland.
