Whiteface (performance)

:''This article is about the race-related whiteface performance. For the whiteface clown, see Clown#Whiteface.''
Whiteface is a form of performance in which a person wears theatrical makeup in order to make themselves look like a white person, usually for comic purposes. The term is a reversal of the more common form of performance known as blackface, in which performers use makeup in order to make themselves look like a black person, for comic purposes. Whiteface performance originated in the 19th century, and today occasionally appears in cinema.
==Definition==
The Oxford English Dictionary defines whiteface as "white or light-coloured make-up" worn "by a black actor playing a white character".〔''The Oxford English Dictionary'', 2nd edition (1989), "whiteface", sense 3.〕
