Articles About Entertaiment

Entertainment is a vast concept that includes anything from a private evening of reading Shakespeare with a loved one to a global event such as a concert or sports competition. It may have a solely amusing or playful purpose, as in the case of a comedy show or a children’s birthday party, but many forms of entertainment also serve a more serious purpose such as ceremonial gatherings, religious festivals or even satire.
