I believe the answer is:

event

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

'show' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'personage at last opening' is the wordplay.
'at last' suggests the final letters.
'opening' becomes 'vent' (vent is a kind of opening).
The last letter of 'personage' is 'e'.
'e'+'vent'='EVENT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for event that I've seen before include "Something happening" , "Something that happens - part of a programme?" , "A noteworthy happening or occurrence" , "Occurren" , "Happening, noteworthy perhaps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
