@joycek Stage plays are the ultimate test of acting skill in my opinion and if Anne couldn’t get that right, then no, don’t come back because that means her acting is still not up to par. Yes, life experience does help, but not in every case….it depends on the person…some people just might not be cut out for acting and no amount of life experiences will help them….to me, Anne seems to be one of those people because her acting in the past was pretty bad (like “cringe-worthy” bad) and by the looks of it, things haven’t gotten any better. Both series mentioned were memorable, but as others had mentioned, it wasn’t really because of her….

i caught a play shown in Singapore last year where Anne played Steven Ma's love interest. (Steven Ma was the titular poet Xu Zhimo & Nancy Wu was featured in the HK version). She definitely could've done better!! i think she knew that her performance wasn't on par as well ... the funny thing was how Steven Ma also apologised at the end of the play saying he was sorry for the show could've been better executed that night lol :/
