Hamlet, e.g. (4)

I think it could be either:

dane

role

(Other definitions for role that I've seen before include "Part (in drama)" , "Function; part" , "Part in play, film etc" , "Impersonation" , "Function in life" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Sun, the Universal, the Wall Street Journal, the King Feature Syndicate and the Penny Press.
