Burmese perhaps takes in strip show (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cabaret

'show' is the definition.
(I know that cabaret is a type of show)

'burmese perhaps takes in strip' is the wordplay.
'burmese perhaps' becomes 'cat' (I've seen this in other clues).
'takes in' indicates putting letters inside.
'strip' becomes 'bare' (synonyms).
'cat' enclosing 'bare' is 'CABARET'.

(Other definitions for cabaret that I've seen before include "Musical - nightclub entertainment" , "Film set in 1931 Berlin - floor show" , "Bear cat (anag.)" , "Floor show and name of great musical" , "Nightclub entertainment, floor show" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
