Entertaiment is a broad term that can be defined as the activity of providing amusement and recreation. This can range from the simple pleasures of an individual choosing a piece of pre-recorded entertainment, to an orchestral or musical composition based on a story such as Scheherazade (a character in the professional storytelling tradition), to a film adaptation or innovative video game. In addition, many forms of entertainment have a more serious purpose than mere amusement, such as ceremony, celebration, religious festivals or satire.
