Play country in Africa — no trouble over touring (9)
I believe the answer is:
pygmalion
'play' is the definition.
(play by George Bernard Shaw)
'country in africa no trouble over touring' is the wordplay.
'country in africa' becomes 'Mali' (African nation).
'trouble' becomes 'gyp' (gyp can mean bodily pain or trouble).
'over' says the letters should be written backwards.
'touring' means one lot of letters goes inside another (touring can mean going round).
'no'+'gyp'='nogyp'
'nogyp' written backwards gives 'pygon'.
'mali' put inside 'pygon' is 'PYGMALION'.
(Other definitions for pygmalion that I've seen before include "drama" , "His sculpture came to life" , "Ancient king" , "The Greek king who created a statue of a woman and fell in love with it" , "Legendary king of Cyprus - Shaw play" .)
