Theatre role recalled hunter (7)
I believe the answer is:
trapper
'hunter' is the definition.
(trapper is a kind of hunter)
'theatre role recalled' is the wordplay.
'theatre' becomes 'rep' (I've seen this in other clues).
'role' becomes 'part' ('part' can be a synonym of 'role').
'recalled' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'rep'+'part'='reppart'
'reppart' reversed gives 'TRAPPER'.
(Other definitions for trapper that I've seen before include "One seeking fur" , "Fur trader, probably" , "Animal fur hunter" , "Catcher of animals for their fur" , "Catcher of wild animals" .)
