More than one could be produced in Madras (5)
I believe the answer is:
drama
'be produced in madras' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
'more than one' is the wordplay.
'more than' becomes 'dram' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'one' becomes 'a'.
'dram'+'a'='DRAMA'
'could' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drama that I've seen before include "Stage production" , "Theatre or radio play" , "Literary genre for the stage" , "theatre studies" , "Emotional sequence of events (made out of a crisis?)" .)
