Liu Yifei knew that she came to the symposium today, and it was more symbolic, and the same was true for her speech.

The proposition of "youth performance education", no one would expect Liu Yifei to be ugly, after all, many people know that Liu Yifei didn't attend classes well when she was in school.

She also did not take on teaching tasks in the theater and did not take students.

This kind of recorded, filmed symposium is actually very boring, basically no dry goods, the spokesmen of the theater and the academy are turning in circles to say official words, at most when giving examples, combined with some realistic examples, for example, Dean Wang Xiaoying said that the National Theater trains newly recruited actors every year, Wang Jinsong played the final performance program of the first semester of the undergraduate drama class at the meeting, and praised the results of film and television and drama class teaching.

For the rest, Liu Yifei, who listened, dozed off.

Liu Yifei's speech was written by the theater, and she just had to read it.

Master Tang said to Zhang Mazi: "Your county government is an ornament, and the only way to judge the case is to go to the tea hall, which is the real county government." ”

Although the national theater troupe is not box-office oriented, the theater leaders also know that active touring is the best way to train the actors and train the team, and if you can earn the box office, at least it shows that the audience likes to watch your play, and the theater is more energetic when you have an audience to watch it.

Liu Yifei smiled: "I'm still embarrassed, every time I perform, I am obviously a supporting role, but my fans in the audience shouted the fiercest." ”

I may have met at a theater festival last month, and we will meet again at an arts festival next month.

Liu Yifei, as a junior, has some jokes that are more suitable for her: "Didn't you say that young actors are educated, how did it become a grievance conference." ”

However, the problem that the National Theatre is now encountering is that there are too few repertoire and performance opportunities, and newcomers are almost always sitting on cold benches in the first three or five years of entering the theater.

"Yuanzheng still has a hand in teaching students." The theater admires Feng Yuanzheng very much, and in 13 years, he rehearsed "Hamlet" for Nortel's photographer students, and the effect was so good that it caused a lot of shock in the circle, "His set of Grotowski things is useful." ”

Wang Jinsong agreed: "Yes, whether it's to see the stars or what to watch, the most important thing is to be willing to walk into the theater." 100 people came in to watch the star, and after two or three performances and five performances, if 10 people could be left to watch the show, it would be considered a special success. ”

Everyone laughed.

In the same way, the symposium is an ornament, and the real exchange takes place at the dinner party after the meeting.

"I don't like what is said outside, Yifei comes to the theater to occupy the position of ordinary people." The leaders of the theater also complained for Liu Yifei, "Yifei's performance, at least bring the audience into the theater, which is good." ”

The domestic drama market is still too small, and there is no professional stage drama platform like Broadway in China, and the best theater viewing atmosphere in the country is in Beijing and Shanghai.

"Broadway isn't easy to do right now." "I talked to the stage director of a Broadway theater a year ago, and he said that the audience flow on Broadway is not as good as before, and the theater has to cut a lot of performances, except for some classic old plays, no one watches new plays. Do you know what is the hottest show on Broadway right now? ”

"Stanley dismantles the show so much that it's like putting a bunch of parts in front of you that you can't assemble. In fact, in his later years, Stanley also realized that there was a problem with his performance system and tried to revise it, but it was too late, and his disciples and grandchildren had already spread his theories and methods to the world, and Stanley himself could not change them. ”

This is also a benefit of traffic.

"Whether it's Stanley or Mei Lanfang or Brecht, they are methods, not systems."

A teacher from the academic affairs office of the college added: "Nowadays, more and more students in the training class come to take the exam, in fact, we teachers prefer blank paper, but there is no way, the trend is like this. ”

"It's a bit of a shame to say it, and a lot of theaters now rely on striptease and astringent performances to survive." Wang Jinsong is also a little sad about the decline of Broadway.

The problem is similar on the theater side, but it is much better than film and television: "It may be that there is no money to be made from acting in dramas, but newcomers are willing to settle down and do it well." ”

Stanley has been spreading in China for sixty or seventy years, and everyone has seen the benefits, and the academic community is also reflecting on Stanley's disadvantages: "Many of Stanley's things are actually relatively backward, and Stanley has broken down the process of performance into many small subjects, liberating nature, animal imitation, and concentration...... Will you be able to perform after all this practice? Many people don't know anything after learning Stanley and going on stage, he has no shaping ability.

"Yes, yes, the more you talk, the heavier the atmosphere."

Speaking of education, Wang Jinsong said that the film school is divided into two classes, film and television and drama, just to use some new methods to see if it can be effective: "In 13 years, we invited Yuan Zheng to teach at the academy for a few days, gave 18 days of acting classes to the students of the photography department, and then went on stage to report "Hamlet", and the effect was very good. That's when we came up with the idea of setting up a drama class. Last year, Yuanzheng also came and gave us "Sunrise". ”

"What?"

Liu Yifei listened carefully to this group of professional scholars discussing Stanley and other performance methods in the world, and felt that she benefited a lot.

"There have never been three systems, and the three systems are imaginary for us as theatre educators. Because we were close to the Soviet Union at that time, we introduced the Stani method, and because Mr. Mei brought Peking Opera out and shook hands with Stanley and had dinner, we called the Mei School another system. The Stanley system has the deepest influence in the world, but it should not be called a system, but a method.

"We also want to speed up the training of newcomers, so that they can become the pillars as soon as possible, but there are too few opportunities, there are old people performing classic old dramas, and there is no new drama in a year, so it is finally discharged, after the first round of performances, I don't know when the next round will be, and it will not play the role of training actors."

Liu Yifei was charging for love back then, and when she learned that Zhang Yuanjun was taking the human art exam, she applied for Mandarin and was admitted to the National Theater.

From a global perspective, the drama circle is not very large, there are only a few playwrights, directors and troupes in the world who have become famous and famous, and everyone knows the specialty repertoire of each troupe.

But she was destined to be disappointed, and the group of professors, deans, and senior academics criticized Stanley at the dinner table.

Wang Jinsong has been on the front line of teaching and performance practice, and he feels very intuitively: "In the past two years, newcomers have become more and more bad, and the quality of graduates is also declining, which is a very obvious feeling." ”

"It's not easy to do commercial tours, there are only a handful of theater companies in the country that can make money from tours, and the market is still too small."

The art exam has just ended, and the teachers really have a lot to say.

"It's okay, the audience comes to watch, and everyone is watching."

Liu Yifei pricked up her ears at this time to listen, she was very interested in these things, she opened her mouth and closed her mouth Stanley, she also wanted to know what other acting schools were about.

"But it's one thing to be aware of the problem, it's another thing to actually teach. We are still teaching animals to simulate and liberate nature every year. Wang Jinsong said, "So we hope to bring in strength from the outside, not to mention change, at least bring something new in." ”

"I can come to school for two classes after I see Yifei."

Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment, and waved her hand again and again: "Me? I can't, I don't even know all about Stanley, isn't it a mistake for me to teach? ”

"Hahaha!" The audience laughed. (End of chapter)
