Who ranted when performing type of play? (3-6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

two-hander

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'type of play?' is the definition.
'two hander' can be an answer for 'play?' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'type of' bit.

'who ranted when performing' is the wordplay.
'when performing' indicates an anagram (the letters move around or 'perform').
'who'+'ranted'='whoranted'
'whoranted' anagrammed gives 'TWO-HANDER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for two-hander that I've seen is " Play for a pair of actors".)
