"Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" is a drama, and "The Marriage of Figaro" is also a drama, but the basis of these two dramas is different, the former is adapted from the four major love stories of Chinese folk, and at the same time absorbs some of the singing content of Yue Opera for adaptation, the main plot can be changed without changing, and a lot of space can be changed freely, so it is very easy to adjust the role; but "The Marriage of Figaro" itself is a comedy of the playwright, and the important thing is not the change of the plot but the performance.

It can be said that "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" has a much larger revision space than "The Marriage of Figaro", and you can add your own creative segments at will, which is no problem, while "The Marriage of Figaro" has a fixed script, which tests everyone's line ability and performance ability, which belong to two types.

Since Chang Li set the actors of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", the biggest difficulty in rehearsal is how to make the rearranged script more reasonable, and it takes a lot of effort to work on the script, but the students in the acting undergraduate class have been cultivating their ability to write scripts since the first day of admission, which is not difficult for them.

At the beginning of the first semester, many sketch assignments were to think by themselves, write by themselves, and act by themselves, and when the task of adapting the script of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" came down to Zhou Bai and them, they did not feel any difficulty in starting.

Because it is two dramas to prepare at the same time, in fact, it is also a test of their adaptability, the lines in "The Marriage of Figaro" are very long, it is a test to remember them all, and how to play when performing is another test, the drama is not a movie or TV series shooting, you can ng at any time, this is a few hours of uninterrupted continuous performance, which is a huge test for all the actors.

Over the years, the education of Chinese opera has been very serious, and the students' studies have been very tight, and the requirements are very high, they have eliminated most of them when they are screened in the art examination, and there is no one who can be admitted to Chinese opera who is not talented.

Chinese opera attaches great importance to the cultivation of students, and after the sophomore year, at least one drama must be arranged every semester, and the academic work is so heavy that even Liu Ye and Zhang Ziyi, who are very strong, are almost crushed, and Zhou Bai even remembers the situation that these two people almost collapsed because they couldn't get out of the sketches.

The casting of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" was carried out very easily, but "The Marriage of Figaro" was much more serious, Chang Li had the intention to let Wu Guohua play the role of Figaro, but unfortunately he didn't know what was going on, he couldn't find the feeling, as if he was stuck in a dead loop.

As the squad leader of the 96 acting class, Wu Guohua has always given people the feeling of being mature and calm, his professional ability is not the best in the class, but his popularity is really good, everyone has no opinion on letting him play Figaro, but he didn't expect the problem to lie in himself, and he couldn't find a feeling, so there was no way to pass the test.

"Class leader, what's wrong with you? It's no problem that you've played so many roles before, why did something go wrong at the juncture of the graduation drama, is there something affecting you?" Zhou Bai also asked Wu Guohua in private.

Wu Guohua has been in Chinese opera for four years, gets along well with the classmates in the class, is enthusiastic, and does many things in the class silently, and he has never refused to help the people in the class, although they are all very trivial things, but in the past four years, he is a very good image in everyone's minds.

"I don't know what's going on, I can't find the feeling of life or death, Lao Bai, you said that I studied acting for four years, but I couldn't play a role in a drama, isn't it too much of a failure?" Wu Guohua smiled bitterly.

"Class leader, aren't you falling into self-doubt? You should have a very clear understanding of your own strength, we rehearse dramas every semester, which time have you ever acted badly?Why are you so unconfident in yourself at this time?" Zhou Bai raised his eyebrows, feeling incredible.

"I also prepared a lot of time for the role of Figaro, and Mr. Chang wanted me to play it, I was very grateful, but Lao Bai, I really couldn't find the feeling, so I wanted to find Mr. Chang to propose to find someone else to play this role. Wu Guohua said dejectedly, very distressed, if he wasn't bald at the moment, he would have pulled off several strands of his hair.

Wu Guohua is in the 96 acting class, he looks the most anxious one, in fact, he is not very old, but since his sophomore year, he has never gone back on the road of baldness, in Chinese opera, he eats at the teacher's window, and has never been suspected, this is what makes him different from everyone, but after studying acting for four years, even if it is a piece of wood, he will be enlightened, and he can't play the role of Figaro, the only possibility is that he has a problem with himself.

Zhou Bai can't do anything about this kind of problem, to put it bluntly, it is psychological, and the only thing others can give him is encouragement and explanation, but if he can't get out of this maze himself, maybe his future performance will be full of obstacles.

"Class leader, I think you should persevere more and accept this challenge, no matter what, the graduation drama is an important thing at the juncture of life, you persevere, even if you don't reach 100 points, it will leave you an important memory in the future, you calmly faced all the difficulties, this is something to be proud of. Zhou Bai was silent for a moment, patted Wu Guohua's shoulder and said.

There is no way, for this kind of situation where self-confidence is already insufficient, it is useless to scold him, so Zhou Bai has no choice but to pour chicken soup for his squad leader.

Wu Guohua's expression is very entangled, the role of Figaro is a very important figure in the play "The Marriage of Figaro", to have the opportunity to play this role is a good opportunity for him, and it is also an honor, but he also has to bear more pressure, he has a feeling of being out of breath under this pressure, and he has never been able to find the feeling, he really wants to give up.

"It's still not good, I'll slow down everyone's preparation process, in case I cause trouble to everyone because of my reasons, I won't be happy, I choose a small role to play, I can also graduate smoothly, I don't want to accommodate me and make it inconvenient for everyone. Wu Guohua sighed and said.

"Class leader, you believe me, the classmates in the class will not have an opinion on you because of this matter, as long as you want to act, we will support you no matter what the situation, we have been together for four years, what kind of character I believe you also know, I think you should think about it, this opportunity is rare, the most important thing is that it is a pass for you, and you may be able to find another scenery if you pass it." Zhou Bai said solemnly.

"Okay, let's think about it, by the way, Lao Bai, are you ready to participate in the National Theater, Renyi and Qingyi?" Wu Guohua asked.
