Be a practical joker to get dramatic effects? (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
play tricks
'be a practical joker to' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'dramatic effects?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'dramatic' could be 'play' (a play is a drama) and 'play' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'tricks' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'get' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
