Question

"Kara and Mirai both got parts in the school play. Kara was cast as the villain, while Mirai would play the heroine."

Which punctuation should be used between the two sentences to show that text has been omitted?

Answer 1

One possible solution is to use an ellipsis (...):

Kara and Mirai both got parts in the school play... Kara was cast as the villain, while Mirai would play the heroine.

This communicates that there is information missing between the two sentences and that a pause is needed while reading the text.
