Performance Artist

A Flamboyant Gay, who lives for acting, singing, or performing in general. They love the spotlight, have memorized every line from their favorite musicals, took modern dance or ballet at some point, and are constantly trying to break into theater. The female variety is invariably straight, but unlike the male version, stands a good chance of also being a Soapbox Sadie.

Well enough known that the expression "he's into musical theater" is a well-known euphemism for being "gay".

Anime and Manga

 * Nathan from Blood Plus lives for the stage and is the producer/manager/whatever of Diva's musical debut. Of course, the performance he most wants to direct and present to an adoring audience is Saya's death at Diva's hands. God help you if you try to screw it up by doing something silly like killing Saya before he sets the perfect stage for her and Diva. Lights, camera, action!
