Chapter 176: Glory Lights, Seeing Him Appear (Part II)

The auditorium was plunged into darkness, and at the same time, two white lights from the left and right sides of the top of the auditorium salvo to the stage, converging in the middle of the red curtain, forming a moon-like circle of light, and the curtain slowly opened, and the scene was in a cheerful commotion.

When the curtain was completely dispersed, a girl in a white dress on the side of the stage held a microphone and appeared under the shroud of chasing light, which was the granddaughter of Gong Yuanhe, the chairman of Gong Media, Gong Chenghui.

As soon as Gong Chenghui walked to the front of the stage, a voice from the audience suddenly appeared: "Gong Chenghui, you are the best, I will always support you." ”

After a burst of laughter, Gong Chenghui smiled: "It's okay, wait until you go backstage to get the money." ”

There was another burst of laughter, and a professor-like figure sitting in the front row leaned sideways to the other judge next to him and said, "This girl reacts very quickly." ”

"The granddaughter of Gong Yuanhe. ”

"Oh, no wonder. ”

After this episode, Gong Chenghui began to officially preside: "Dear Director Kang, leaders, judges, teachers, dear students, good evening!"

Applause.

……

After a long list of clichΓ©s that I have to say that I like to see and see strange, I finally cut to the chase: "Tonight is the sixth PK competition of Vientiane Drama School, "Romeo and Juliet" brought by the Academy of Literature and Art, please enjoy it." ”

After the curtain was over, Gong Chenghui walked off the stage with her skirt, the chasing light disappeared, and the stage fell into a short period of darkness, and then the background music slowly sounded, and Gong Chenghui's voice resounded throughout the auditorium again, which was the opening poem of "Romeo and Juliet":

The story takes place in the famous city of Verona,

There are two giants of the same lineage,

Generations of old feuds have provoked new disputes,

Blood desecrated the white hands of the citizens.

It is fate that condemns these two enemies,

Gave birth to a pair of unfortunate lovers.

……

The opening sentence of this very modern poem is finished. There was a small audience cheering in the audience, but probably because of the presence of Director Kang, they did not go too far without expression, and it was clear that this was the aftermath of the forum dispute.

The first scene of the main play began, and several young men in servant costumes came on the stage with shields and swords, and everyone saw their costumes and props, and there was another burst of laughter, waiting to hear their dialogue. Half of the audience couldn't help but laugh.

"When I get angry, my sword will be denied. ”

"But you don't always get angry. ”

"When I saw the Montague dogs, I was angry. ”

……

This kind of plain dialogue makes everyone feel that the actors on the stage are performing child's play.

Seeing this scene, Sun Boya finally put her mind at ease, she didn't believe that Ma Yiyi's words were true. Intelligently judged that it was just a conspiracy by Ye Hao, and she was now planning how to post on the gossip floor to point out the collusion between Ye Hao, Kang Lingyue and Liu Jingting.

The idiot conversation on stage continues. The actors were not in the slightest affected by the audience's reaction. Still engaged in speaking lines and doing movements, as early as the beginning of rehearsals, director Liu Jingting told them that because the background and costumes did not match the traditional Chinese drama, the audience was first contacted. There will definitely be an adaptation period, and at this time, be sure to stay calm and give it your all. Because at the beginning of the play, it is the time to introduce the audience into the situation step by step.

As Liu Jingting expected, the audience in the audience has automatically adjusted to the mode of complaining, watching a paragraph and chatting with the people around them.

"What about the good romantic drama, the tissues are ready, show me this?"

"So do they want to fight with real guns?"

"Do you have to speak like this to show that you are a drama?"

Liu Jingting, who was sitting in the corner of the right area on the first floor, watched every move of the actors on the stage silently, without any expression of joy and anger on his face, but Kang Lingyue, who was sitting next to him, looked a little nervous, his hands were subconsciously clenched into fists, and he glanced sideways at Liu Jingting from time to time.

After all, Kang Lingyue invested so much in "Romeo and Juliet" that she almost treated it as if she were her own child.

The background music suddenly became tight and rapid, and the first conflict finally arrived, when the two servants who had been arguing for a long time finally drew their swords and fought each other, and the audience's discussion was slightly suppressed.

Then, Banvolio played by Wang Hangan appeared, drew his sword and separated the servants who were fighting, Tibalt, and Banvolio disagreed and fought together.

What followed was a unified brawl between servants and townspeople.

……

In addition to creating the first conflict of the play, the main purpose of this brawl is to introduce the feud between the two families of Capulet and Montague.

With the end of the fight, the male protagonist Romeo finally appeared, Xu Yuan's tall and handsome figure, coupled with a red aristocratic suit, was a little amazing, and the audience could hear the girl's admiration, or the girl and her boyfriend next to her said fascinatedly: "What will you look like when you wear that suit?"

The boy's contrasting heart was provoked, and the first wave of substitution successfully arrived.

In addition, because Romeo appeared with a crush, he naturally had a melancholy temperament, and as soon as the lyrical and poetic dialogue came out, the table was instantly suppressed, and at this time, the audience gradually entered the play in the midst of talking and laughing.

Just as the male audience was indignantly PK with Xu Yuan's Romeo in their hearts, Juliet, the heroine wearing silver jewelry and a white dress, appeared with her.

The unique stage background, the music carefully selected by Yoo Kyung-jeong Kang Lingyue, and the lighting changes that cut into the plot make Juliet's appearance even more eye-catching.

"It's beautiful, like an angel. ”

Someone sighed like this, Liu Jingting didn't turn his head, leaned over to Kang Lingyue slightly, and said, "Your clothing choice should get full marks." ”

Kang Lingyue smiled and said, "Of course." ”

After the male and female protagonists appeared together, the tone of the whole play was set halfway, and the audience's mentality became the "to be seen" stage of "see how you act", which means that the real confrontation between the show and the audience has officially begun.

"Who is the young lady holding the knight's hand?"

With Romeo's question, the most classic and eternal scene in the history of artistic love in his life followed:

Romeo meets Juliet for the first time!

The torch is nowhere near as bright as hers;

She hung brightly on the cheeks of the twilight,

Like a ring of pearls shining in the ears of a black slave;

She is the pearl of heaven and landed on earth!]

Romeo's account is still an exaggeration. It is an authentic lyrical confession, and a small group of people in the audience immediately laughed, but this time it did not resonate with everyone, and from a certain point of view, this line is very suitable for the environment presented on the stage.

Juliet, who is so beautiful and dazzling even in the crowd, is completely in line with the infatuated image he shows when he appears.

At the dinner party, Juliet was the well-deserved protagonist, and the encounter with Romeo became love at first sight between the two of them.

……

Next. It is also the most important scene of the play, and it is also the second most repeated one during rehearsals, because this scene has to determine the love affair between Romeo and Juliet, and also draws the drama for the plot direction of the whole play.

In order to ensure that this "love" can be presented perfectly. Liu Jingting deliberately released Richard Clayderman's famous piano piece "Romeo and Juliet" in advance as background music.

Ancient Romanesque castle towers. Colorful green leaves and red flowers are hung. Juliet was still dressed in white, sitting in the ancient building, whispering and muttering to herself, accompanied by a soft and intoxicating piano tone, and there was indescribable sadness and helplessness in her tone.

"Romeo. Why are you Romeo, deny your father, throw away your name, or maybe you don't want to do that, then as long as you swear to be my love, I don't want to be Capulet anymore. ”

By your last name. In my name, is the most loyal love nothing but that?

Lovers at first sight, but from a family with a deep feud with themselves, Xu Yuan and Lin Xun, who already have a heart, after countless days and nights of words and coordination, after Liu Jingting explained and demonstrated more than 100 times, they have already incarnated the hero and heroine in the play, this orchard meeting, with the cooperation of the lighting engineer and piano music, was presented by them perfectly.

Liu Jingting, who was sitting in the dark corner, gently clasped his palms, his head swaying slightly with the flow of background music.

At this point, most of the girls in the audience have already entered the play, and the previous ridicule and ridicule can no longer form a scale, and occasionally appear, it also seems very abrupt and embarrassing, and finally has to be silent.

Kang Lingyue reciprocated and said to Liu Jingting: "The song is well chosen, and it is also 100 points." ”

……

After the completion of the "Love" section, the whole drama will stand on its feet, and the convent marriage in the back will become logical, but it is just a reasonable presentation of the deepening of the relationship between the two.

Then the plot took a sudden turn, Romeo's friend was killed by Juliet's cousin, Romeo was angry, killed Juliet's cousin, and was expelled tragically, and Juliet's side received another nobleman's courtship.

The relationship between the two has encountered a serious crisis.

From marriage to murder to expulsion, the fast-paced plot has completely captured the hearts of the audience, and everyone has begun to care about the relationship between Romeo and Juliet.

Juliet approached the priest for help and was given a bottle of fake death medicine, which she drank and would wake up twenty-four hours later.

The appearance of this plot made the worried audience relax a little, until Romeo received the error message in the middle of the play, and the sensitive audience had already smelled the tragedy, and the heart that had just relaxed tightened again.

The symphony of grandeur and sorrow sounded at the right time, and Romeo, who was in pain, roared, "There is such a thing, fate, I curse you!" Then he bought a bottle of poison, ran to Juliet's grave, and killed the Count of Paris in excruciating physical and mental pain.

The plot has entered the biggest climax of the whole play!

The large-scale symphony that had been rushing and shaking before came to an abrupt end, and the piano piece that reached the heart sounded for the second time, in fact, the audience had already sunk into it as soon as the prelude began.

This is also a commonly used method in dramas and even film and television dramas, the same background music, properly used repeatedly, not only will not bored the audience, but will successfully arouse their corresponding feelings.

Because the same music has already given them a hint, when this music sounds, it is the emotional part of the plot, prepare the paper and start crying.

Romeo dug up the grave, uttered a line in a mad and desperate manner, drank the poisoned medicine, kissed Juliet affectionately, and died.

As early as when Romeo was drinking the poison, some female audience members began to sob, and by the time Juliet was unwilling to leave Romeo, searching for poison but couldn't, and finally stabbed herself with Romeo's dagger and fell into his arms to die, the audience was already crying.

Until death, life and death go hand in hand.

That's the ultimate theme of this play.

Mr. Jin Yong, a master of martial arts novels, once clearly said that after countless years, the concept of family and country may disappear, but emotions will never dissipate, which is the eternal theme of works of art, which is also one of the reasons why he is respected as a "love saint".

Melodious and sad piano music flowed in the ears of the audience, and a poignant love affair came to an end.

Nine out of ten couples snuggled up to each other unconsciously, and the girlfriends were either crying or still silent in the plot, unable to ease their minds.

The judges also seemed to have experienced a baptism of the soul, temporarily losing the ability to make technical judgments, and they watched six plays, and this was the only one that made them feel that they were watching a play, not grading homework.

Regardless of the choreography and lighting, the picturesque lines are not mentioned, and the background music throughout the story is also ignored, just this "death and resurrection, life and death" bridge design is enough to make this drama a classic!

In fact, before they could score, they heard someone take the lead and start clapping vigorously.

The monotonous sound of palm slapping echoed in the auditorium, accompanied by the sound of sobbing, forming a very strange picture.

Then, the audience of the blockbuster began to applaud, and in this thunderous applause, all the actors of the "Romeo and Juliet" crew returned to the stage for a closing ceremony, and it can be seen that each of their faces are filled with pride and happiness.

The host Gong Seung-hye also took the stage again, and she quietly waited for the applause to end.

Three minutes later, the applause slowly fell.

"I heard a lot of people crying in the audience, so you can pay attention to my eyes, yes, I've put on my makeup and cried. ”

A small piece of laughter.

"At this time, it is obviously too redundant for me to stand here, so let's invite the creator of this touching drama again with warm applause, and invite director Liu Jingting to meet you. ”

After the two beams of chasing light swept wildly for a while, they finally succeeded in freezing on Liu Jingting in the corner, and the eyes of everyone in the audience were focused, and the audience who was far away had already stood up and looked at the person covered by the beam.

Liu Jingting smiled humbly, stood up calmly, and invited Kang Lingyue next to him, Kang Lingyue symbolically held his arm, and the two bathed in the most glorious light of the audience, step by step on the stage. (To be continued......)
