Actor I run into oddly after short glitch in play (6,6)
I believe the answer is:
blithe spirit
'play' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'actor i run into oddly after short glitch in' is the wordplay.
'actor' becomes 'thesp' (short for thespian, term for an actor).
'run into' becomes 'r' (I've seen this in other clues).
'oddly after short glitch' becomes 'bliit' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'thesp'+'i'+'r'='thespir'
'thespir' inserted within 'bliit' is 'BLITHE SPIRIT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for blithe spirit that I've seen before include "Noel Coward play (Madame Arcati)" , "Phil is bitter (anag) - Noel Coward play" , "written for a lark by poet" , "Comedy" , "Coward acts" .)
