After the burlesque let's organise a game (8)
I believe the answer is:
skittles
'a game' is the definition.
(skittles is a kind of game)
'after the burlesque let's organise' is the wordplay.
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'the burlesque' becomes 'skit' (I've seen this before).
'organise' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'organised' mean this).
'lets' with letters rearranged gives 'tles'.
'skit' next to 'tles' is 'SKITTLES'.
(Other definitions for skittles that I've seen before include "Game in which ball is aimed at pins" , "Bowling game" , "Game played in an alley" , "Ninepins" , "Pub game" .)
