Acting
Acting is an activity in which a story is told by means of its enactment by an actor or actress who adopts a character—in theatre, television, film, radio, or any other medium that makes use of the mimetic mode.
Performing Arts
Performing arts are a form of art in which artists use their voices or bodies, often in relation to other objects, to convey artistic expression. It is different from visual arts, which is when artists use paint, canvas or various materials to create physical or static art objects. Performing arts include several disciplines, each performed in front of a live audience.

The principal benefit acting has afforded me is the money to pay for my psychoanalysis.
Marlon Brando: The Only Contender, Gary Carey (1985), Ch.13
Acting
I think I love and reverence all arts equally, only putting my own just above the others; because in it I recognize the union and culmination of my own. To me it seems as if when God conceived the world, that was Poetry; He formed it, and that was Sculpture; He colored it, and that was Painting; He peopled it with living beings, and that was the grand, divine, eternal Drama.
Charlotte Cushman.
Acting
On the stage he was natural, simple, affecting,'Twas only that when he was off, he was acting.
Oliver Goldsmith, Retaliation (1774), line 101.
