The Piano is a fantasy-adventure play written by Clara Hsu. It is based on her knowledge and experience as a piano teacher and as a child growing up in her father's piano factory.
In the play, two students get sucked into the piano. They meet Mr. Hammer, Ms Strings and tour the piano factory of Mr. Ma in 1970's Hong Kong.
The play has turned into a COVID-19 Social Distancing Theater Production, where students ages 10 to 15 rehearsed on Zoom and were filmed one at a time. The footage was edited together afterward, making it into a play-movie.
The Piano is lovingly produced as a testament of tenacity and creativity of the human spirit. It was so for Mr. Ma, the piano manufacturer. It is so today, for all of us in the time of Coronavirus.
