More than one queen, perhaps, in France on vacation with something to say on stage (7)

I believe the answer is:

felines

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'more than one queen perhaps' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'in france on vacation with something to say on stage' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
'france' could be 'f' and 'f' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for felines that I've seen is " Cats".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
