Play that's sensational, made moral perhaps (9)
I believe the answer is:
melodrama
'play' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'made moral perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' is an anagram indicator.
'made'+'moral'='mademoral'
'mademoral' is an anagram of 'MELODRAMA'.
'that's sensational' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for melodrama that I've seen before include "sensational performance" , "sensational affair" , "Sensational theatre piece" , "Old play in emotional and sensational style" , "Exceptionally sensational play" .)
