Live-Action RolePlaying.  From the rec.games.frp.live-action FAQ:

A Description in Brief.

As in any roleplaying game each player takes on the role of a
fictional character, or sometimes a dramatized version of a real
historical or living person. You play your character much as you would
in any roleplaying setting but even more so. Instead of saying what
actions your character takes, you actually take those actions for
real. Game mechanics are in place for handling difficult situations,
but for the duration of the game you are the person you are
portraying. The border where physical portrayal stops and abstract
rules start is the main difference between various styles of LRP, and
can range from rules for anything beyond speaking to someone being
handled in an abstract way to as few rules as are possible whist
keeping fights safe.
