"Make great play of (something)" = Cứ thích làm nổi bật lên để gây sự chú ý, thể hiện thái độ/hành động quá lên khi làm một việc y như nó quan trọng lắm.

Ví dụ
While both organisations make great play of their support to Spiffe and Spire, it’s worth noting that both projects are still just in the CNCF’s sandbox (khuôn cát, hộp cát) category, almost two years after the CNCF first took them on.

You could be at your most persuasive. This really is a sociable day and you should make great play of your ability to bring people together. Prospects for those in the property market are distinctly better than average but, as usual, your planning has to be perfect.

One drink I used to really enjoy was the US whiskey liqueur called “Southern Comfort” but it has become quite difficult to find it in in pubs and bars over the last few years. I think it might be something to do with the logo on the label which is of a man in a white hood holding a burning torch! A more popular US whiskey, available everywhere, is Jack Daniels. The adverts for it on posters in tube stations and so on make great play of where the drink is made, which is a town called Lynchburg in Tennessee. Now towns are often named after what went on there aren’t they? Like “Queensferry” where there was a ferry the queen used, or “Minehead” where there used to be the entrance to a mine. So Lynchburg – a town in the Deep South – you think “hmmm….”
