stage productions
Live theatrical presentations
Stage productions are live theatrical performances presented before an audience—plays, musicals, operas, ballets, and similar works performed on a stage.
The term emphasizes the full mounted production rather than just the script or score: The stage production of Les Misérables ran for years on Broadway.
It often distinguishes live theater from film or television adaptations of the same work.
