Jinan folk artist created the shadow drama "Pingdingshan"

Recently, after more than 4 years, Jinan Pingying Artist Li Wei combined the original "Pingdingshan" of Jinan shadow shadow in combination with the original work, a total of 11 episodes, about 4 hours.

"Pingdingshan" is adapted from the relevant content of the 32nd to 35th round of Chinese classic literary masterpieces "Journey to the West". In order to eat Tang monks, the king of the horns captured the Tang monks, the eight precepts, and the sand monk. Goku is not afraid of the five magic weapons of the demon, fighting with them. After several contests, the lotus cave was finally broken, the demon was surrendered, and the Tang monk was rescued.

Li Wei told reporters that the traditional Jinan Pi Ying drama has a smooth saying, called "Tour the east to the west, and there is no head". This is said to be an important performance content of the shadow of Jinan. And the whole book "Pingdingshan" has been performed for nearly 60 years, and only the artist has performed a fragment. The full -scale "Pingdingshan" this time took more than 4 years from conception to completion. Although there was no text and video materials, he compiled the whole book with the original creative creation with his childhood memory. The plot of this drama is different from the original, which fully shows the characteristics of Jinan Pi Ying and Li Xingtang's shadow art. There are speaking and singing, burdens and jokes, and the plot is roundabout. It is difficult to complete the completion.

Li Wei is the only son of Li Xingtang, the only inheritor of the Shandong Yingying, the only inheritor of the immortal cultural heritage in Shandong, and inherited the craftsmanship left by his father. Over the years, he has been committed to the inheritance and development of Li Xingtang's shadow art. The production of a small filmmaker must be completed by designing, fixed manuscripts, selection of skin, sculpture, setting, coloring, and binding. It often takes more than a week from design to completion.

Li Wei said that "Pingdingshan" has been rehearsed, hoping to have the opportunity to let the audience see the original traditional Jinan shadow play. (Jinan Daily reporter Zhang Xiaohan)
