Crossword Genius

Able to repeat dance? (3-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

can-can

'dance?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'able to repeat' is the wordplay.
'able' becomes 'can'.
'to repeat' shows that letters should be duplicated.
'can' duplicated is 'CAN-CAN'.

(Another definition for can-can that I've seen is " Cole Porter musical of 1953".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
