Theatrical performer

Japanese: 演戯者 - えんぎしゃ
Theatrical performer

...The performers have something to perform. Thus, the four essential elements of theater are the viewers, i.e. the audience (spectators, audience), the performers, i.e. the actors (performers, actors, actors), the space that brings the two together, i.e. the theater (not necessarily permanent), and the thing that is performed by the actors, i.e. the art of structuring the action and its results. Dramaturgie (German, dramaturgie, French) is the art of dramaturgy. Dramaturgy is not always expressed in words, but when it is expressed in words, it is called a script or a play.

*Some of the terminology explanations that refer to "performers" are listed below.
