The small theater is like a box of chocolate, you never know what the next one is.

Twelve young directors and 12 brain circuits, although facing relatively unified propositions: "Water Margin" and "Peony Pavilion" are selected as a modern translation, as long as you dare to enter the "country in the August weekend this August "Words of Pioneer Wisdom Theater" will definitely bring you no repetition, exceeding the imagination, surprise, surprise, and frightening! So that the creators and audiences who went to two -way could not help but amazed: too exciting!

The summer madness of this "small theater" started in a rare "Young Director Creation Support Plan", which is rare in the drama industry. The director training method of the director, the "modern translation" of the classical literature, the full process of the 12 -story young director completed the whole process of creativity, creation, rehearsal, synthesis, and performance. Smart theater "" on the weekend exhibition.

The two shows each show, the fares are close to the people, and the surprises are doubled, which once again set off the enthusiasm of young and middle -aged young people in the "small theater". Last weekend, it reached a small climax. It coincided with the switch from "martial arts" to "literary opera". The topic of "Water Margin" came to an end. Open the "literary drama" exploration around "Peony Pavilion". The audience's expectation value of the blind box is almost full.

In August, the National Pioneer Smart Theater, Wen Qing was like weaving, and it was difficult to find a vote. Such a fiery scene in memory was about 3 years ago.

"mission"

Chekhov said, "Without the drama, you can't live."

Is drama so important? After all, as far as we are, most people have less mobile phones and cannot live. When the digital network is popularized to today, brushing, brushing movies, and short videos are all available. What is the greater attraction for spending money to buy tickets into the theater?

A few years ago, Tian Qinxin, who was a banner in the Chinese drama industry, said that since he invited the audience into the theater, he had to come up with more valuable things. At that time, the overall expression of the Chinese theater was relatively pale. The theme vision, technical application, and emotional expression were more limited, especially "the aesthetics and history of our nation and the east are not enough to study."

The small theater has its artistic mission, "the artistic mission of the small theater lies in experiments and exploration." This time, the "Young Director Creation Support Plan" was launched. Tian Qinxin, the dean of the Chinese National Theater, and the entire team obviously came with a mission, holding their love for national culture and Eastern aesthetics, and explored the spirit of the spirit and youth of the times. Activate the classics, build a stage for young talents, and protect every love for drama.

"Translate"

"Water Margin" and "Peony Pavilion" are selected. The modern translation of classical masterpieces, the first thing to face is how to break the question and how to change it?

Director Gao Leilei did not hesitate to choose "Peony Pavilion" because he was familiar. The master's degree reads "Research on Eastern and West Drama", Tang Xianzu's "Peony Pavilion", and is named with Shakespeare. Naturally, it is a classic that cannot go around.

"I don't know what to do, and I feel deeply affectionate. The life can die, the death can live," the text is beautiful, elegant and affectionate, and it has already become the label of "Peony Pavilion".

However, when Gao Leilei thought of the director's conception, "I can't understand a person's love for life, dying, I'm sorry."

The background of "Peony Pavilion" itself is far from us. What is the value of "love" in modern people? Why do young people now watch "Peony Pavilion"?

Gao Leilei and the team constantly questioned themselves and dug the theme of "translation". "We found that Tang Xianzu is a special author with dreams and pursuits. Confucian Chen is the best. All the characters have some characteristics of Tang Xianzu. This characteristic of the author can open up ancient and modern. "

Therefore, the drama "Three Life Road" is not just about love, but it wants to talk more: persistence, dreams, independent thinking, individual and environmental relationships, different audiences may draw different feelings from it.

The drama "Three Life Road" plot introduction:

I don't know if there is a fate in my dream

I don't know what it will look at long waiting

Unnecessary painful desire

Maybe it can spread us like a paper

From the beginning to the end

Know every sudden turning point

How

And when it looks at the overall situation

Can we understand what we think

All of this as the feeling of life

Can't take a step fast or take a slow shot

But even so

I still don't want to be a bystander

The story of "Three Life Road" was written like a poem, which was actually helped to create a teacher who was designed as lighting.

Gao Leilei appreciated the phrase "I don't want to be a bystander", "The onlookers who do not want to be life are also my positive attitude. I think life is related to me, society is related to me, the world is related to me, so I am me I hope this drama can also be related to everyone. This is also the fundamental reason why there is no such thing as a love story. "

There is also dance beauty that makes people feel happy. In order to allow young directors to have professional stage talents, the National Theater of China has sent outstanding stage art designers Xu Haidong and Li Yang to create two groups of fantasy stages of "one text and one martial arts". On the stage of "Water Margin", boulders, pine trees, cold moon, and screens created a classic atmosphere of "Mingyue Night, Short Songgang"; the stage of "Peony Pavilion", arch, flower window, plum tree, mirror surface, constitutes virtual reality and reality The romantic space of each other, dreamy modern.

"Peony Pavilion" made 8 sets of scenes, all of which are particularly tall and mobile combinations.

The tall texture is in line with Gao Leilei's presentation of the theme. "They are obstructive and form the concept of walls. At the same time, in the huge scene, people are small. Little me, it is also a small environment to shake the big environment. Participate in active participation, in line with my expression of the world view. "

After reading the original "Peony Pavilion", Wu Mei Design is also trying to complete the classic "modern translation" through vision: "There is actually no peony in" Peony Pavilion ", only plum trees. Tang Xianzu has a soft spot for the peony, so Permanently running all his works. "Therefore, the design of the flower window combines the image of peony.

The huge flower windows are inlaid with the imprisoned flowers, and some are only half. When the mirror is reflected, a complete flower is formed. "When the module is separated, they are like the universe separated by mirror. Although the flowers are like brocade and the spring is full of spring, they will always have a sense of loss and misalignment like the floating dust." Multi -space dreams have a visually philosophical extension.

With the help of the tall scenery, Gao Leilei scheduled the space outside the door, so that Du Li Niang, a girl like Du Li Niang, under the guidance of the girl -in -law Chunxiang, accidentally pushed the door of the back garden. When she saw "Glowing and Bluster", "This is actually an accident. She opened a door and opened a whole world since then."

"Everyone can have their own direction and the life they want, and be a positive actor, or Wen Da in the world, or live and work in peace, yes! All of this is right. Life is short, there may This life. This 'good' standard is not in the society. "This is what" Three Life Road "wants to describe it.

The poster

"space"

"I can choose any space to call it an empty stage. A person walks through this space under the gaze of others, which is enough to form a drama ..." This passage comes from the drama master Peter Brook's book "The empty Space".

Director Zhao Yi feels deeply about this sentence. In the process of creating the drama "The People in Dreams", he is constantly thinking about the charm and viewing relationship of the "small theater". A very close place. We used to do a play in a small space in Shanghai Lane. Residents can see a show without a threshold as long as they go downstairs. Everyone is sitting on the ground. Everyone in the empty classroom is surrounded by in the middle. "

Therefore, Zhao I hope that the modern translation of "Peony Pavilion" will be closer to life itself. "I hope that the story structure and the emotional needs of modern people can be tied closer."

The drama "Dream People" plot introduction:

Do not know why

Two people walked into the same dream

One is a man who feels confused about the future

The other is a woman who feels about to disappear

In a dream

They met in a garden briefly

Since then, I have embarked on the long journey to find each other

Look

Not just that person

There are also some puzzles that always exist--

Whose dream is this dream?

Is this dream just a dream?

"I am particularly afraid that this script is only at the level of love, and it is more about throwing a doubt about you in your life. Many times you are tired of your body, but your brain will always think about a question and you can't find the answer. So in this play, the actors will have been running, asking, and always miss. "

When the male and female protagonists finally met, they found a original intention, a self that can face life bravely.

The theater is a dream place. When Zhao hopes that everyone can get some spiritual comfort when they enter the theater. After waking up, they return to real life and be able to face the world more calmly.

Regarding the unique space of the small theater, Shi Hang, the drama person, recalled once a theater experience: "... a real life drama, very mediocre. The distance was moved, but was moved by the shattering of the distance. We were a little bit of the drama 'niches ... "The trend of heart was surging, which was the sexy of the small theater.
