Role Of Performing Arts in the 21st Century: Reducing Stress in The Era of Liberalization, Privatization, And Globalization (LPG)

Abstract

This research paper explores the role of performing arts in the 21st century and its potential to alleviate the stress caused by the processes of liberalization, privatization, and globalization (LPG). As societies become more interconnected and dynamic, individuals face increased pressures and stressors related to rapid societal changes. The performing arts, including theater, dance, music, and other forms of artistic expression, provide a valuable avenue for emotional release, personal growth, and community engagement. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, this paper highlights the therapeutic, social, and cultural benefits of performing arts, offering insights into how they can mitigate the negative impacts of LPG. The findings suggest that investing in and promoting performing arts can contribute to the overall well-being and resilience of individuals and communities in the face of contemporary challenges.
