Represents performances that are cancelled? (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
acts out
'represents' is the definition.
(acting out is a kind of representing)
'performances that are cancelled?' is the wordplay.
'performances' becomes 'acts' (act is a kind of performance).
'that are cancelled?' becomes 'out' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'acts'+'out'='ACTS OUT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for acts out that I've seen is " Performs in a play".)
