Theatre actor in the end eschewing training under Larry (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
drury lane
'larry' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drury lane that I've seen before include "London Theatre street" , "Theatre Royal street" , "street outside theatre" .)
