Bishop going in car to dance (5)
I believe the answer is:
limbo
'dance' is the definition.
(type of dance)
'bishop going in car' is the wordplay.
'bishop' becomes 'B' (abbreviation for bishop in chess).
'going in' indicates putting letters inside.
'car' becomes 'limo' (limo is a kind of car).
'b' going within 'limo' is 'LIMBO'.
'to' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for limbo that I've seen before include "Period of indecision" , "Dance; uncertain period of waiting" , "Once the supposed abode of unbaptised souls of babies" , "Where things are unused or forgotten" , "(Under bar) dance" .)
