Özet
This essay discourses the performing art, as an art form created to reflect the life and culture of the individuals who create them, and their influences on society. A segment of the Nigerian population believes that performing art is a ludicrous art not worthy of being identified with. The analytical method of research is used in the essay. The work of Jean-Louise Barrault; Best and Worst of Profession, is x-rayed in determining what society thinks about the artist, his performance, and its implication to Nigerian society. The essay point first, to performing arts like drama, songs, and music as a means of urging and moving people to social action, and then, to the therapeutic significance to the audience as the second primary concern after the entertainment. The essay recommends that a healing of the Nigerian nation will only be possible when the artist is serious in his performing art as trade.
