Crossword Genius

Admission from muse entertaining us in pub (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inclusion

'admission' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'muse entertaining us in pub' is the wordplay.
'muse' becomes 'clio' (Clio is an example).
'entertaining' is an insertion indicator.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'pub' becomes 'inn' (I've seen this before).
'clio' enclosing 'us' is 'clusio'.
'clusio' placed within 'inn' is 'INCLUSION'.

'from' is the link.

(Another definition for inclusion that I've seen is " Incorporation".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
