troupe
Touring theater company
A troupe is a group of performers who work together, especially actors, dancers, or circus artists: a traveling theater troupe, an acrobatic troupe.
The word suggests a company that performs as a unit, often touring from place to place.
A trouper is a member of such a group, and by extension, someone reliable who perseveres through difficulties.
