different actions put together to get different msg. thats what happens when u study theatre. its called the study of semiotics, the science of signs.

An actor has 3 choices: 1. to choose what signs he wants to include; 2. leave out certain signs he doesn't want to include; and most importantly, 3. hierarchise the signs that he is portraying.

otherwise the specatators will not understand what you are trying to present across, because of the mixed up signs!!

so, do u understand what i'm trying to say?
