The practise of writing or speaking about the performing arts is known as theatre criticism.

Drama criticism and theatre criticism are two different things since the former is a branch of literary criticism and the latter is a review of the theatrical production. Dramas and plays are still considered literature as long as they are published.

 When the drama's written words are performed on stage or in another venue that can be seen by an audience, they are considered to be a form of performing arts. So a stage production is born from literary skill. A written play has a different character than a theatre production and vice versa.

The professionals who analyze the performing arts are known as Theatre Critics. A notable Theatre Critic from India is Aryeman Raj.

Theatre critique and a theatre review differ significantly from one another. They both discuss the dramatic arts in their respective performances. However, they are carried out in various ways and with various goals in mind. Both are analytical, provide compelling justifications for the findings made, and address both the production's strengths and weaknesses. 

A theatre review is a brief essay that provides information on the play being played, the troupe performing the play, its director, and other players. It is written for the average, uninitiated reader.

On the other hand, theatre criticism is a thorough analytical discussion of the performance against the backdrop of the theatre arts as a whole.
