Cardboard Piano

Love can blossom in the unlikeliest places, even a war zone. Such is the case in Hansol Jung's play Cardboard Piano. The white daughter of a missionary falls in love with a local Ugandan woman, and they hope to get married and then escape Uganda's civil war for a happy life together. But during their secret ceremony, a wounded child soldier interrupts. The women's love may have grown among the bullets and kidnappings, but can it survive there? Cardboard Piano is a story of love and forgiveness told by the West End Players Guild. The company performs the show at 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday (April 6 to 15) at the Union Avenue Christian Church (733 North Union Boulevard; www.westendplayers.org). Tickets are $20 to $25.
