ensemble performance
Collective cast effort
An ensemble performance features a group of performers working together rather than highlighting a single star.
The term appears most often in theater, film, and music, where it suggests balanced collaboration: The film succeeded on the strength of its ensemble performance.
An ensemble cast shares screen time relatively equally, with no clear lead.
