Tintin's dance (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cancan

'dance' is the definition.
(I know that cancan is a type of choreography)

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for cancan that I've seen before include "Chorus-line dance" , "Lively stage dance, doubly permissive" , "Chorus-girl dance" , "Parisian stage dance" , "Parisian high-kicking dance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian.
