treen is wooden ware

closet (as in not outed as gay?)

manatee = e moved to front

All I can make of it
1a) ex + P.L.O. + (d)I(r)T(y)

12a) black = B, books = O.T. left = L, say = E.G. wooden ware = TREEN
=> B OT TlegREEN

16d) anagram of 'kin' in (the) 'closet'

23a) move the last letter of MANATEE to the front

2d) unnamed = ANON, greek = GR, each = PER, piece of music = SONATA
