Shakespearean figure backed genuine revolution in scenery etc (7)

I believe the answer is:
laertes
'scenery etc' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'shakespearean figure backed genuine revolution' is the wordplay.
'shakespearean figure' becomes 'tes' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'backed' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (some letters go at the back of others).
'genuine' becomes 'real' (similar in meaning).
'revolution' says the letters should be written backwards.
'real' reversed gives 'laer'.
'tes' put after 'laer' is 'LAERTES'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for laertes that I've seen before include "Father of Odysseus" , "Shakespearean character" , "Someone opposed to Prince" , "character in Hamlet" , "Ophelia's brother (Hamlet)" .)
