If I record myself reading a copyrighted book and share the recording with some friends (for free), is that copyright infringement?

If so, can I claim fair use by, idk, dressing up in a funny outfit or something and turning the reading into a performance art piece, which I then record and share?

Is it copyright infringement to extract the audio from said recording of such a performance art piece and share that? There must be a legal way to do this...

A game of secrets and lies. ‘Bloody Orkney’ is a fast-paced thriller set in Scotland, mainly in Orkney, during World War Two. It uses many real settings.

Ness Battery near Stromness helped guard the western entrance to Scapa Flow during the war and can still be visited today, as it was by the book’s characters in November 1942. This modern image shows the battery observation post and fire command.
