performance. It is meant to be performed live in front of an audience, with emphasis on vocal delivery, gestures, and body language.
Performance poetry often addresses social and personal issues and can be highly engaging and emotionally charged. Through rhythm, intonation, and
dramatic presentation, performers bring their words to life, creating a unique and captivating experience for both the poet and the audience.

symbolic value. Dance can be categorized and described by its choreography, by its repertoire of movements, or by its historical period or place of origin. An
important distinction is to be drawn between the contexts of theatrical and participatory dance, although these two categories are not always completely
separate; both may have special functions, whether social, ceremonial, competitive, erotic, martial, or sacred/liturgical. Other forms of human movement are
sometimes said to have a dance-like quality, including martial arts, gymnastics, cheerleading, figure skating, synchronized swimming, marching bands, and
many other forms of athletics.
