The answer to the question is: B. an interlude

An interlude is a short play performed between the acts of a larger play for entertainment. It serves as a break in the main action and provides additional amusement or diversion for the audience. Interludes are often used to lighten the mood or provide comic relief, and they may feature separate characters and storylines from the main play. These short performances can vary widely in style and content, but they are generally designed to entertain and engage the audience during the intervals between the acts of the main production.
