Recite something concerning dance being cancelled (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
reel off
'recite' is the definition.
(reeling off is a kind of reciting)
'dance being cancelled' is the wordplay.
'dance' becomes 'reel' (reel is a kind of dance).
'being cancelled' becomes 'off' ('off' can be similar in meaning to 'cancelled').
'reel'+'off'='REEL OFF'
'something concerning' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reel off that I've seen before include "Effortlessly recite" , "Recite by heart" , "Recite (something) rapidly" , "Announce with speed and fluency" , "stagger away" .)
