Word with space or soap (5)

I believe the answer is:

opera

'word with space or soap' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for opera that I've seen before include "Musical entertainment" , "Eg, The Magic Flute" , ""Rigoletto", for example" , "Eg, Der Rosenkavalier" , "Musical piece accompanying a stage drama or comedy" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the LA Times.
