Fun-loving youth in drama? (7)
I believe the answer is:
playboy
'drama?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.
'fun-loving youth' is the wordplay.
'fun' becomes 'play' (synonyms).
'loving youth' becomes 'boy' (male youth. I am not sure about the 'loving' bit.).
'play'+'boy'='PLAYBOY'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for playboy that I've seen before include "Male pleasure seeker" , "Rich pleasure-seeking man" , "American men's lifestyle and entertainment magazine" , "Rich debauchee" , "Wealthy pleasure-seeker" .)
