I believe the answer is:
act
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">take steps</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for act that I've seen before include "Exploit" , "turn" , "Perform on stage" , "Do something (on stage?)" , "Take steps" .)
