Three studies in hand-mime.
(Chin Yu is appearing in 'South Pacific' at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, London)

Seldom has a short television programme received such an immediate and warm response as Chin Yu's exposition last September of the curious and fascinating art of hand-mime. Chin Yu learned the ancient Indian art from Hadassah, a Jewish performer and teacher in New York. During the war she was interned in Hong Kong by the Japanese, repatriated on an American ship, and in San Francisco earned her living by typing.
