Go off script maybe as performer in front of people at stadium? (8)
I believe the answer is:
divagate
'go off' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'script maybe as performer in front of people at stadium?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'performer' could be 'diva' (diva is a kind of performer) and 'diva' is located in the answer.
'at' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ge' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for divagate that I've seen before include "Stray, digress" , "Go off course" .)
