traveling troupe
Roving performance group
A traveling troupe is a group of performers—actors, musicians, acrobats, or other entertainers—who move from place to place giving shows.
The term evokes older forms of entertainment: circuses, theater companies, and musical acts touring small towns before mass media.
The traveling troupe performed Shakespeare in village squares across the countryside.
