Shout and dance we hear (4)
I believe the answer is:
bawl
'shout' is the definition.
(I know that bawl is a type of shout)
'dance we hear' is the wordplay.
'dance' becomes 'ball' (ball is a kind of dance).
'we hear' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'ball' is a homophone of 'BAWL'.
'and' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for bawl that I've seen before include "Supporter of Charles I" , "Howl" , "Weep noisily" , "Shout loudly" , "wail of discontent" .)
