An acting troupe is a group of performers who come together to create and present theatrical productions. These troupes can vary in size and may include actors, directors, and stage crew. They often collaborate on various types of performances, such as plays, musicals, or improvisational shows, and may tour to different venues or perform in a fixed location. Acting troupes can be found in many settings, from professional theaters to community centers and schools. Some well-known examples include the Royal Shakespeare Company and Second City. These groups play a vital role in the arts, fostering creativity and providing entertainment to audiences.
