Entertaiment

Entertaiment

Entertaiment is a term that encompasses many activities that provide amusement and pleasure. It includes theatre, music, dance, sport and games. Although technological developments alter the availability, cost and speed of entertainment products, the basic forms remain the same. For example, the story of Scheherazade from Persian professional storytelling tradition has been retold in orchestral music by Rimsky-Korsakov, Ravel and Szymanowski; as a film by Pasolini; and in innovative video games. It is often abbreviated to entmt on fliers or in industry news publications where space is limited.
