Actor’s Express likes to pluck its newest work from the annual Humana Festival of New Plays at Actors Theatre of Louisville. It does so again with Hansol Jung’s Cardboard Piano, set in a remote Ugandan village on New Year’s Eve in 1999. There, two girls — one a villager, the other the daughter of American missionaries — sneak into a church to hold a makeshift wedding for themselves. When they’re interrupted by a boy soldier on the run, they’re thrust into a chain of events that changes them forever. Kennesaw State’s Karen Robinson directs an enviable cast: Ashley Anderson, Isake Akanke, Stephen Ruffin and Rob Demery. A fall/winter Encore Atlanta top pick.
