What is "green room"

n. 1 (''entertainment'') In a television studio, theatre or concert hall, the room where performers await their entrance. 2 (context surfing English) The inside of a tube (ie. of a wave making a tube).

In show business, the green room is the space in a theatre or similar venue that functions as a waiting room and lounge for performers before and after a performance, and during the show when they are not engaged on stage.

The origin of the term is often ascribed to such rooms historically being painted green. The modern "green room" is usually not green at all.

The Green Room is one of three state parlors on the first floor in the White House, the home of the President of the United States. It is used for small receptions and teas. During a state dinner, guests are served cocktails in the three state parlors before the president, first lady, and visiting head of state descend the Grand Staircase for dinner. The room is traditionally decorated in shades of green.

The room is approximately 28 feet by 22½ feet (approx. 8.5m x 6.8m). It has six doors, which open into the Cross Hall, East Room, South Portico, and Blue Room.

Green room is a space or facility for accommodating individuals making public appearances.
