The research methodology is to apply the terminological method to eliminate the inconsistencies between the term and the phenomenon. Scientific Novelty.

The applied different approaches to the concept of «stage» proved the need to consider the concept of «entertainment». Conclusions. The stage ballroom dance is rapidly developing and expanding the range of expressive-figurative means of experiments in lexical and compositional planes of the choreographic work.
