What are the mediums of performing arts?

What are the mediums of performing arts?
Performing arts are those in which no physic record exists after the art work is created. The more common performing arts are music and theather in which live actors present plays or musicals. Another type is performance art, in which a single artist performs actions to express ideas, the action serving no useful function other than to educate, entertain or even shock an audience. All of these art forms require a certain level of skill, because there is no effective way to fix mistakes as they occur. The performance arts are to be contrasted with such arts media as painting and sculpture. The performance arts, especially instrumental music, have the potential for more abstractness than other arts such as painting and sculpture because they exist apart from the real world; that is they produce artifacts (for example, the sound of a trumpet) that do not resemble things in the real world.
