'parade' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'around adverts on house performers on tour' is the wordplay.
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'adverts' becomes 'ads' ('ad' can be a synonym of 'advert').
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'performers on tour' becomes 'row' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'ads'+'ho'='adsho'
'adsho' placed into 'row' is 'ROAD SHOW'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for road show that I've seen before include "Touring event" , "Hoods war (anag.)" , "Touring promotional campaign" , "Touring performance" , "Touring performers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
