To keep new, 'create anew' or 'create again'? (2-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

re-enact

'create again'?' is the definition.
(re-enacting is a kind of creating again)

'to keep new create anew' is the wordplay.
'to keep' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'anew' is an anagram indicator.
'create' is an anagram of 'reeact'.
'n' inserted within 'reeact' is 'RE-ENACT'.

'or' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
