theatrical troupes
Touring performance groups
Theatrical troupes are companies of actors who perform plays together, often traveling from venue to venue.
The term evokes an older tradition of itinerant performers bringing drama to communities without permanent theaters: A theatrical troupe passed through town each summer.
Modern usage may suggest a close-knit ensemble with a shared artistic vision.
