Do modern day performance arts go beyond theatre and filmmaking?

Posted on May 3, 2026 by Stentor Staff Writer

Leonor Valente ‘29deoliveiraleit@lakeforest.eduStaff Writer Since its origin, film has been taking over the performance arts stage. With the technological boom of the two world wars, a shift from Europe to the United States as the central stage for filmmaking and the idolization of actors, American filmmaking has never been more prevalent in the global scope of arts.
