Drama with Edward taken down (5)
I believe the answer is:
noted
'taken down' is the definition.
('note' can be a synonym of 'take down')
'drama with edward' is the wordplay.
'drama with' becomes 'no' (I've seen this in other clues).
'edward' becomes 'ted'.
'no'+'ted'='NOTED'
(Other definitions for noted that I've seen before include "taken down" , "Widely known and esteemed" , "Having renown" , "Renowned" , "Observed or took account of" .)
