We did an exercise called punctuation dancing, which every time a piece of punctuation is used, you had to do a different move. Such as a jump for a full stop or an arm swing for a comma. The piece of text I used and danced out the punctuation was;
"No. She want's her money. The money my mother borrowed to get us over here. [To the audience] My mother died on the lorry we were in on the way over here"
This is one of Cheung's lines, from this i saw that he uses many full stops to get his point across of the sentence. This could be due to the lack of communication in hostel and that they generally cant understand each other easily, that he has to be quite blunt and straight forward. This also may display that he's quite reserved with his feelings, he doesn't like going into detail and he's very reserved. This helps us as a group look deeper into his character and understand how to play him effectively.
