Entertainer turning to drama (7)

I believe the answer is:
matador
'entertainer' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'turning to drama' is the wordplay.
'turning' indicates an anagram.
'to'+'drama'='todrama'
'todrama' is an anagram of 'MATADOR'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for matador that I've seen before include "Spaniard that fights" , "A Spanish bullfighter" , "fighter in the ring?" , "ROM data (anag)" , "Spanish performer" .)
