<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">groups of performers</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for casts that I've seen before include "Allocates parts" , "groups of actors" , "Eg puts" , "Throws" , "Assigns an actor to a role" .)
