Chapter 104: Time steals Qingsi, but keeps one of you (congratulations to me for the alliance leader who is eighteen years old!)
The essence of drama is storytelling.
The story itself is both good and bad.
And not all good stories are told wonderfully.
To tell a story well on the drama stage, first of all, the core of the script must be hard, the ideas you want to convey must be strong, and then the actors' interpretation skills and various stage details must be solid!
Obviously, the current Li Shixin, with lighting and storyboard stage performance, has interpreted an ordinary story wonderfully, and conveyed the emotions that the story wants to express to the audience in the United States.
As the second act ended, the audience applauded!
Everyone was moved by the loneliness and loneliness of the daughter on the stage who got married and started a family, and the father in life.
"Good!"
In the back row, the delegation of the Cultural Bureau who came to enforce the law couldn't help but cheer!
"Cut, what's good?"
"I didn't see what was good, I didn't have a few lines, so boring. β
Seeing a group of adults applauding, Chen Yiyi and Su Sansan pouted,
"Kid, you can't talk like that!"
On the side, Sun Guowei, the leader of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, who came to enforce the law, slapped his face a few times, and took advantage of the end of the second act to smile at the two little girls: "The drama must be watched with heart! The good and the bad are completely in the details." I'll give you an example β you know "The Teahouse", right?"
Although this masterpiece of Lao She has been performed more than 1,000 times on the domestic and international drama stages, it is recognized as the most classic and the most touching is the first version performed by the Red Flag Repertory Theatre.
There are so many versions of "Teahouse", the script is the same, why can you say that the Red Flag Regiment is the most classic?
Let's just say that there is a scene in "Teahouse", where an old farmer sells his daughter in a teahouse.
In most versions, the tea guests in the teahouse in this scene are sympathetic when they see the old farmer selling his daughter. But in the performance version of the Red Flag Repertory Theatre at that time, all the tea customers in the teahouse were snickering with joy on their faces when they saw people selling their daughters.
Many people find faults, saying that the actors' emotions are wrong, and when they see others selling their daughters, why are the actors on stage still stealing fun?
But those who really understand the drama and really understand "Teahouse" know this detail, and it has been determined that the level of the Red Flag Troupe has reached the palace level!
In the old society, there were children and daughters sold every day, and no one would have so much sympathy. People will only rejoice - he sold all his daughters poorly, I haven't yet, the grandfather is better than him!
A stage and the detailed performance of the actors, directly showing the times. That's what it is!"
Chen Yiyi and Su Sansan also studied the text of "Teahouse", and when they heard the uncle next to them say this, they smacked their lips: "Uncle, what do you have to do with the current situation?"
"It's a big deal!"
Sun Guowei smiled and pointed to the stage: "In this scene just now, the actor's emotions gradually changed, and the role of the father went from the reluctance and worry at the wedding scene to the loneliness after the wedding and the aging process reflected by the actor's facial expressions. The emotions are conveyed steadily, accurately, and appropriately! The actor's skills are hot!"
"Speaking of the scheduling of the lighting on the stage, the application of several small props, none of them are superfluous, and none of them steal the brilliance of the actors. It's textbook level! It's ...... It's like eating a piece of sugar that doesn't hurt your throat and is full of sweetness! β
"It's so godly, it's really fake?"
οΌοΏ£γΈοΏ£οΌοΌοΌοΏ£γΈοΏ£οΌγ
Seeing that the two little girls still looked like "I don't read much, you must be lying to me", Sun Guowei, who is also a cultural industry worker, shook his head.
"Which school are you two from?"
"One, uncle, how's it going?"
Silently keeping No. 1 Middle School in mind, Sun Guowei sighed.
Now these children, the standard of judgment against the United States is seriously lacking, and it seems that it is necessary to talk to the leaders of No. 1 Middle School.
Coursework must be grasped tightly, but the cultural and ideological construction of students must also keep up!
......
Background.
Hearing the continuous applause of his face in the theater, Zhang Shuo was stunned!
"Godfather, I...... Didn't I smash it?"
"Hehe,"
Li Shixin, who had already changed his makeup neatly by two, smiled.
"Of course not, didn't you hear the applause of the audience?"
Zhang Shuo gagged and said, "But, but when I came on stage just now, I was completely confused, and I don't remember what the lines were." β
"Silly boy, Shixin brought it to you just now. He changed a few lines, and broke the part where you forgot the words and was stunned, and turned it into the new son-in-law's nervousness and helplessness in the face of his father-in-law. The stage is good, and I feel better than when I was rehearsing. β
On the side, Zhao Jinzhi, who had already finished her makeup and was waiting to replace An Xiaoxiao, came on stage to play her daughter's middle-aged age, smiled slightly and said.
"Alright. Li Shixin motioned to Zhao Jinzhi not to say more, got up and patted Zhang Shuo's shoulder.
"Shuo'er, you did a good job just now. The first half of the period is really out of shape, but I am very satisfied with the second half! Hold on, hurry up and prepare, go on stage! Remember, on stage, you are the character. Don't think about anything else!"
Looking at Li Shixin's back, Zhang Shuo clenched his fists.
"Got my godfather!"
......
The first two scenes of "Only You, the Concern I Can't Forget in My Life" are foreshadowing, and in the third act, the real turning point and climax come.
As soon as the third act opened, Li Shixin once again used the stage and props to set up the audience, which made the audience's eyes shine.
The title of the third act, "I Don't Know Me in the Mirror", is about my father's Alzheimer's disease after a long period of loneliness.
There are many manifestations of Alzheimer's disease, but the most obvious is central nervous system degeneration, memory loss.
One of the most serious types of memory loss is when the patient loses a large part of his or her memory, and thus disagrees with his or her current self β that is, does not recognize himself in the mirror.
To put it simply, patients who only have memories of being thirty years old can't accept it when they see their sixty-year-old self.
As soon as the curtain opened, a rectangular frame faced the auditorium.
Immediately afterwards, the father, who was older than the previous scene, staggered to the front of the stage and stood behind the frame.
Facing the mirror of nothingness, my father's eyes widened.
His expression changed from confusion, to panic, to anger.
Seeing this setting, Sun Guowei in the back row waved his fist fiercely.
This stage performance is simply amazing!
The actor looks in the mirror to the audience, and the frame of the prop is facing the audience, as if all the audience is looking in the mirror.
Not a single line.
But that kind of strangeness, that kind of alienation, that kind of fear that is not in the mirror, but through the focus of Li Shixin's gaze, and the micro-expression that every muscle on his face is shaking, it pierced into the audience's heart like a needle!
Bang!
With the acoustics in place, the father smashed the "mirror".
At this time, the daughter and son-in-law, who had entered middle age, appeared on the stage and supported her father.
"Your father's Alzheimer's disease is already very serious, and it is unlikely that he will be able to take care of himself in the future, so it is best for you to take someone to take care of it, so as not to get lost and be irritated......"
Listening to the voiceover of the doctor's order, the daughter's face was sad.
But the contradictory climax of the whole play has also begun to appear!
The daughter quit her job and stayed at home with her father, and the son-in-law supported the two families independently.
There was no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, he lost a source of income, there was an extra burden in the family, and the attitude of the son-in-law gradually deteriorated. Affected by her husband's emotions, her daughter, who has a peaceful personality, is gradually irritable.
treats his father with the same respect and care as before.
Finally, under the negligence of his daughter, the father, who had severe amnesia, went missing on a thunderstormy night.
The whole family panicked and ran around the stage to find it.
The father, on the other hand, was stupid and stupid, and on the same stormy night as the first act, he walked to the abandoned school and slowly sat at the gate of the dilapidated school.
I don't know how long it took, but the daughter finally found her father with the information provided by the well-wisher.
"Dad, what are you doing here?!"
"I'm ......" my father looked up blankly, "Xiaoxiao, Dad is here to pick you up from school." β
On the stage, her daughter was stunned.
Tears flowed down his face in an instant.
"Dad, I've been out of junior high school for more than 20 years!"
At this point, the voiceover sounds.
In the first act, the dialogue between the middle-aged father when he picks up his daughter from school emerges with the sound of a thunderstorm.
"Dad, as long as it thunders and rains in the future, you have to come and pick me up from school, otherwise I'm afraid!"
"Okay, okay, Daddy made a note of it. β
"You can't forget! No matter how busy you are at work, you have to come and pick me up. β
"Well, don't worry. Father... Can't forget. β
The lines in the first act span more than twenty years and appear in the final act.
The whole play, in this scene, at this moment, completely rushed to the climax!
The daughter who had a complete outburst of emotion hugged her father, "Dad, why did you forget everything, remember this!
The father did not answer.
Freeze frame.
But the curtain did not fall.
As the light changed from dim to a warm color of memory, the daughter of her teenage years slowly walked onto the stage through time and space, and stopped at the side of the father and daughter who hugged tightly.
The music played.
"Don't let go of what you can hold onto, and don't pull what you can hug.
Time is in a hurry, washing, what is left.
......
Who lets.
Time is something that catches people off guard, sometimes it is sunny and sometimes it is windy and sometimes it is rainy.
I can't fight for the day, and I think about the past.
stole the green silk but kept one of you.
The years are a journey with no return, and the good and the bad are the scenery.
Don't blame me for being greedy, I just don't want to wake up.
Because you, only for you, will join me, see... The clouds are light and the wind is light. β
This is where the music comes to an abrupt end.
As the curtain slowly fell, the father's voiceover sounded, answering the previous daughter's question;
"Because you...... It's a concern I can't forget in my life. β
Wow!
At this moment, the audience stood up.
There was a sobbing sound.
Thunderous applause!
