This clue might be a double definition.

'theatre employee' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'welsh possibly?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dresser that I've seen before include "Person working in one theatre" , "Surgeon's assistant" , "Item of furniture with shelves and drawers" , "One putting things on" , "Surgical assistant" .)
