Played (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

acted

toyed

'played' is the definition.
('act' can be a synonym of 'play')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for acted that I've seen before include "Behaved or played a part" , "Took part in play" , "Played a 30ac" , "Performed (in a play)" , "Worked" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
