Drink and drive to accommodate a tense playwright (10)
I believe the answer is:
dramaturge
'playwright' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'drink and drive to accommodate a tense' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'drink' could be 'dram' (small alcoholic drink) and 'dram' is found in the answer.
'drive' could be 'urge' (I've seen this before) and 'urge' is located in the answer.
'a' is found in the answer.
'tense' could be 't' (abbreviation used in many dictionaries) and 't' is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dramaturge that I've seen before include "specialist in theatre" , "one's ended up in theatre" , "playwright" .)
