theatrical rock
Theatrical rock is a style of rock music characterized by dramatic performances, elaborate stage setups, costumes, and visual storytelling that enhance the live experience. It combines musical intensity with theatrical elements like acting, props, and choreography to create a immersive, entertainment-focused show. This genre often emphasizes visual spectacle and emotional storytelling, blurring the lines between concert and theater. Notable examples include artists like David Bowie, Queen, and Alice Cooper, who use their shows to tell stories or create characters, making concerts a multidimensional experience beyond just listening to music.
