What is another word for whiteface?
Pronunciation: [wˈa͡ɪtfe͡ɪs] (IPA) 
Whiteface is an outdated and insensitive term used to describe a person who paints their face white to portray a character. Alternative and less offensive terms that can be used include mime artist, clown, or theatrical performer. Mime artists use subtle body movements and facial expressions to depict emotions and stories, while clowns create laughter and entertainment through exaggerated facial expressions and physical comedy. The term 'theatrical performer' can also be used to encompass a broad spectrum of performers who use makeup to play roles on stage or screen. Regardless of the term used, it is important to be respectful and inclusive towards all performers.
