Improvisation

Organized play, e.g. games and sports, the arts

Outcome-focused and compulsory work

Drudgery, enslavement, deadening ‘work’

Deadly Theatre and other deadly art forms are likely to be outcome-focused but may not have a compulsive element. A video gamer in full flow might be in a heightened state of tension and agitation, so the image of deadening seems hardly an accurate description.
