live audience
Attending crowd watching
A live audience is a group of spectators physically present during a performance, broadcast, or recording—as opposed to viewers watching remotely.
The term emphasizes real-time presence: The show was filmed before a live audience.
Television programs sometimes add recorded laughter to simulate one, but filmed before a live studio audience signals genuine reactions.
