Shed players (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cast

I believe this is a double definition.

'shed' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'players' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for cast that I've seen before include "Allot roles in a play" , "Throw the actors' group" , "Troupe" , "Throw out line for fish" , "Character" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
