Entertaiment is a concept that has evolved and can be applied on any scale: from an individual choosing his or her own entertainment from the now enormous array of pre-recorded products to a banquet for two; to games for children to prepare them for adult responsibilities, such as child rearing and social interaction; to competitions staged for thousands and broadcast for global audiences. Many familiar forms of entertainment are based on or take inspiration from mythology, religious festivals, ceremonies and satire.
