A live performance is a presentation, show or event that takes place in real-time and involves one or more individuals performing for an audience. This can include music concerts, theatre productions, comedy shows, dance performances, and other types of entertainment where the performers are present on stage or in front of the audience to deliver their performance without any pre-recorded elements. The term "live" refers to the fact that everything is happening as it happens, with no editing, looping or other technological enhancements used to augment the experience. Live performances offer a unique and unpredictable element of spontaneity and interaction between performers and audience members, making each event a special and memorable occasion.
