Charity show

Japanese: チャリティ・ショー(英語表記)charity show
Charity show
A performance such as a play, music show, or movie that is held to use the proceeds for a socially meaningful purpose. It is a charity performance. In English, it is called a charity performance or a charity concert. There are two ways to make money: the performers receive little or no performance fee, or they charge a high admission fee, and sometimes both are used together. This was unthinkable in the days when the performing arts were under the patronage of the nobility, and the emergence of charity shows is inseparable from the modern phenomenon of the performing arts becoming financially independent.

Japanese:
収益を社会的に意義のある目的に用いるために行われる,演劇,音楽,映画などの興行。慈善興行のこと。英語では,チャリティ・パフォーマンスcharity performance,チャリティ・コンサートcharity concertなどという。出演者が出演料をわずかしか,あるいはまったく受け取らないというかたちで収益をあげるやり方と,高額の入場料をとるやり方とがあり,ときには両者が併用される。芸能が貴族などの庇護を受けていた時代には考えられなかったことであり,チャリティ・ショーの成立は近代における芸能の経済的自立という現象と切り離せない。
