Player works naked (5)
I believe the answer is:
actor
'player' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for actor that I've seen before include "One on stage" , "Cruise maybe" , "Gielgud, say" , "Thespian, stage performer" , "One in a play" .)
