Mass Games

Mass Games is a state-orchestrated, large-scale performative spectacle that functions as a ritualized display of national identity, distinguished from other forms of public performance by its highly synchronized participation of thousands of individuals, ideological didacticism, and integration of music, movement, and visual symbolism to affirm collective unity and political legitimacy.
