traveling show
Mobile performance troupe
A traveling show is an entertainment company that moves from place to place rather than performing at a fixed venue.
Circuses, carnivals, and theater troupes have historically operated this way, setting up temporarily in each town before moving on: The traveling show arrived with its tents and wagons.
The term evokes a bygone era of itinerant performers, sideshows, and spectacles brought to rural communities.
