 Performers serve little practical purpose, as they mostly just duplicate the behavior of other taverngoers, and the [[tavern keeper]] if assigned to a tavern.

 [[File:perform_icon_large.png|right]]'''Performer''' is an [[occupation]]. Performers will perform for idle [[visitor]]s at your fort's [[tavern]]s and [[temple]]s, through such media as stories, dance, poetry, and music. You may assign any number of your fortress's [[dwarves]] to serve as performers at the tavern and temple locations, and performers from other [[civilization]]s will regularly visit your fort's taverns to entertain taverngoers or [[petition]] for long-term residency.

 Toady commenting on dancing:
-<blockquote>Every dance is associated to a musical form, and the dances respect the rhythm, tempo and some other elements of the music. I didn't reproduce the rhythm patterns below, but it tries to make elements like the number of steps in a basic movement align with the rhythm and so forth. All of the forms below were generated for humanoid forms, but I'm working toward some support for varied creature bodies -- so you'll see stuff below like "left leg" even though that text doesn't appear in the dwarf raws, and you also won't see useful words like "hips" -- it's a work in progress, but it won't necessarily need to progress on that score before the release. There also aren't certain fundamentals like costumes, and I don't expect to get them in for this time. There will be some further restrictions based on entity character that aren't in yet.</blockquote>
