Not clear what your question is. If you mean touring actors, they would have travelled from town to town and put on the plays (sometimes in shortened versions) in makeshift spaces, like tavern yards. If you mean that you have a play that has traveling actors as characters and want to know how to direct them, give them music, tumbling, juggling, etc. as crowd-gathering gimmicks and then think commedia dell-arte.Posted by Hamlet on March 19, 1997 at 12:25:59
