drama festival
Staged performance showcase
A drama festival is an organized event where theatrical performances are presented, often in competition.
Schools hold drama festivals for student productions; communities stage them to showcase local talent.
Some festivals focus on particular forms—one-act plays, Shakespeare, fringe theater.
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the world's largest arts festival.
