Playing it, is there little room for love? (5)
I believe the answer is:
cello
'playing it is there little' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'room for love?' is the wordplay.
'room' becomes 'cell' (cell is a kind of room).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'love?' becomes 'o' (love means zero in tennis).
'cell'+'o'='CELLO'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cello that I've seen before include "Musical instrument like large violin held between knees" , "Jacqueline du Pre's instrument" , "Lloyd Webber's instrument" , "Casals' instrument" , "Large stringed instrument" .)
