Pulitzer category (5)
I believe the answer is:
drama
'pulitzer category' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for drama that I've seen before include "Emotional sequence of events (made out of a crisis?)" , "Play - big emotional scene" , "show of histrionics" , "Work to be performed by actors" , "Stage play, may be exciting" .)
