How is impresario donning a territory? (7,2,2,3)
I believe the answer is:
putting on an act
'how is impresario' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'donning a territory?' is the wordplay.
'donning' becomes 'putting on' ('put on' can be a synonym of 'don').
'a' becomes 'an'.
'territory?' becomes 'act' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'puttingon'+'an'+'act'='PUTTING ON AN ACT'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
