performance piece
Live artistic presentation
A performance piece is a work of art presented as a live event rather than a static object—typically combining elements of theater, dance, music, or visual art.
The term often implies something conceptual, avant-garde, or boundary-pushing: Her three-hour silent protest was more performance piece than political rally.
Used sarcastically, it suggests pretentious or overwrought behavior: His resignation speech was quite the performance piece.
