A weird bunch in Shakespeare play — or one by Chekhov? (3,5,7)
I believe the answer is:
the three sisters
'a weird bunch in shakespeare play' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'one by chekhov?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'the' (both can introduce a definite example of something) and 'the' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'threesisters' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'or' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for the three sisters that I've seen before include "Chekhov's" , "girls in treacle well" , "Graces?" , "Play" .)
