child performers
Juvenile stage talent
Child performers are young people who act, sing, dance, or otherwise entertain professionally.
The term encompasses child actors in film and television, young musicians, circus performers, and participants in beauty pageants or talent competitions.
Child performers face unique concerns: labor regulations limit their working hours, and early fame often brings psychological challenges.
The documentary examined how child performers navigate school while filming.
