Physical Theatre
Some people believe that Brecht first introduced physical theatre.
It's often theatre with added movement, or even dance added. It could also be a live musical performance.
'Many physical styles of theatre such as mime, Commedia dell'Arte, slap-stick, clowning etc can be categorised as physical theatre. Any movement-driven theatre can also be called Physical Theatre.'http://www.4dr.co.uk/whatis.php
