Thirty years ago, Pu was hired by director Lin Zhaohua to play the title character in his adapted edition of Hamlet. "The experience helped me to become a good actor, and today I am directing this group of Tibetan kids who are about to graduate", he said.

"After four years studying at STA, they are now capable of performing the dramatic classic in mandarin and the Tibetan language…please remember them. In the future they will become even more brilliant, and come back to Shanghai as members of the Tibetan Dramatic Theatre."
