Entertainment is a broad field encompassing everything from comedy to music, dance and art. It is a vital component of modern life, as it helps us escape the rigors of work and daily routines. It also allows families to bond more closely. But it’s no secret that many people struggle to find time to enjoy themselves. Entertaiment is a complex and competitive industry, so it’s important to have the right approach before jumping into it.

One mistake people often make is to focus on the performance aspects of their chosen career, without considering the business side.

The experience of being entertained has come to be strongly associated with fun and laughter, although many entertainments have a serious purpose, such as ceremony, celebration, religious festival or satire.
