More entr'acte signs at Agence Eureka.

"Entr'acte is French for "between the acts" (German: Zwischenspiel, Italian: Intermezzo). It can mean a pause between two parts of a stage production, synonymous to an intermission, but it more often indicates a piece of music (interlude) performed between acts of a theatrical production."- Wikipedia
