Work can be fun (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

play

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'work' is the first definition.
(I know that play is a type of work)

'fun' is the second definition.
(I know that fun can be written as play)

'can be' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for play that I've seen before include "Frolic" , "Dramatic work" , "Hamlet, for example" , "Theatrical performance" , "Freedom of movement" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
