A world of Xiangshan Night

The major revolutionary historical drama "The Night of Xiangshan" created by the Beijing People's Art Theater focused on the major historical moment of China's future direction in April 1949, the liberation of Nanjing in the future. The inner activity is the main line, bringing in the inner activity of Chiang Kai -shek at the same time at the inner activity of Zhejiang Xikou's residence. The work puts two historical figures of different time and space in the same drama scene, creating an art imagination of the empty dialogue. The two actors are both onlookers and people in the play. Between statement and comments, the audience will be traced back to historical figures and events, looking back at the historical stages of the new democratic revolution, watching the general trend of history, understanding the history of the Communist Party of China to victory inevitable. The whole drama strongly reveals that the reason why the Communist Party of China has achieved victory and continuously developing and growing is because our party has always been a profound theme for the Chinese nation's rejuvenation and the happiness of the Chinese people. It has far -reaching practical significance.

Ingenious ideas and bold use of innovation

The drama "The Night of Xiangshan" has a particularly clever idea, that is, make full use of the assumptions of the stage to allow the two politicians to appear on the same time and space and the same stage. Think about the defeat of the Kuomintang and the victory of the Communist Party.

The screenwriter Li Baoqun said: "This is a very special drama structure, which uses the assumption of drama." The Chinese People's Liberation Army crossed the Yangtze River, liberated Nanjing, and Mao Zedong, who was standing at the historic moment, slept all night, and Chiang Kai -shek behind the wild was also uneasy. The seat. Under such scenarios, the two actors sat together on the stage and jumped into the main line and jumped out. They combined the subjective perspective and objective perspective to jointly shape these two historical figures.

In the play, the actor will face the conversion of three identities: the first is to directly talk to the audience as an actor, tell the audience, we want to play a play, to play two representatives in history; the second identity is The historian tells the history on the stage; the third identity is the role of the role, in the story of historical events.

Two historical figures have a spiritual dialogue and thought in such a night, and such dramatic frameworks are very innovative.

From shaped to God to shape the character image

"Strictly speaking, shaping the image of Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai -shek is not something that ordinary actors can complete. In addition to the similar image, there must be a spiritual temperament." It looks like the gods of Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai -shek Wang Ban and Fang Xu have done a lot of behind -the -scenes work.

In the process of shaping the role of Mao Zedong, Wang Ban said that he must first learn the history of the party, because as a member of the Communist Party, he must have a firm belief in communism and have confidence in this area. "If I am not a party member and have not been educated and cultivated by the party, then the interpretation of this drama is not in place when I was on the stage." He said.

Followed by changes in external images, you can feel very similar to the audience when you walk into the theater. "In the hearts of the Chinese people, Chairman Mao's image is very specific." Wang Ban also increased his weight for this reason to approach Mao Zedong, who was approaching the middle age from the image.

Once again, pursuit of higher -level gods. In order to understand Mao Zedong's great character and great man's story, Wang Ban read a lot of books, including the memories of the drivers, nurses, guards, and chefs around Mao Zedong. "I feel that Chairman Mao is very friendly, especially for the staff around him. They wrote a common understanding in the book: 'Chairman is our loved ones.' Many times he has nothing to do with it. Think, a great man is in the world, and the administrative affairs are so cumbersome. He can also take care of the people around him. This makes many people unforgettable all their lives. "

In this regard, Li Baoqun also said: "I hope that on the stage, the actors can shape the characters with flesh and blood and emotions." Therefore, in the play, Mao Zedong and Yang Kaihui's emotions, follow the left power and those who sacrificed comrades -in -arms also wrote in particular. By the emotions of him and the people. One of them said that in the process of the enemy's "encirclement", a guerrilla member once escaped a fire with him. When it comes to here, it is enthusiastic.

Finally, there is a question of dialect. When he received the script, Wang Ban asked his friends to record a lot of information about Hunan Xiangtan dialect, practice hard, find the feeling from the context and taste, and finally use it to the stage. Wang Zi said: "The two actors have practiced in dialects and strive to from shape to God. This is also our pursuit at the stage."

In the process of shaping Chiang Kai -shek, Fang Xu said that it is necessary to shape the characters according to the human emotional logic. You cannot face the face, you cannot just understand it, so you need to do a lot of homework, look at a lot of information, and find more lifestyle habits. Details.

When shaping the characters, it is difficult to present if the character's personality has no certain perception. Fang Xu said: "As an actor, you have to work hard. As long as you use enough minds and the information can be seen enough, you will have a relatively deep understanding of the characters."

Fang Xu said that he must appreciate the characters and the history. For example, in the play, when Chiang Kai -shek had gone, he made a heartbreaking shout, in fact, he borrowed history. According to relevant information, Chiang Kai -shek had the habit of shouting Shupan when he was too stressful. Fang Xu said: "That shouting is nothing to Chiang Kai -shek, he is clear in his heart. But this kind of thing is really difficult to understand for our actors, only to learn from." Fang Xu is a native of Beijing, and Chiang Kai -shek is Ningbo Fenghua, so to master the sense of language of the local statement, he must have a lot of effort. When I first started this role, Fang Xu invited a hometown to be an actor of Ningbo. He recorded a line of this drama with Mandarin with the Ningbo accent. He listened every day. After several months of practice, he finally finally practiced. Master the sense of language.

In addition, in terms of character creation, Fang Xu believes that the "current" attribute of the art of drama is to be pursued. Because of the art form of the drama, the performance is completed in the "present". The communication between the actors and the actors on the stage is "the present". The communication between the actors and the audience on the stage is also "present".

Concentrated revolutionary history shows the inner world

The stage style of "Xiangshan Night" is very simple, focusing on the inner world of two characters. They all walked through the long history. At an important historical inflection point, Mao Zedong had thousands of emotions and thought about how we came to today; Chiang Kai -shek also had a lot of lament, thinking why he came to this step. So this is both an ideological drama and an emotional drama.

In the play, Mao Zedong thought of Yang Kaihui, who had already sacrificed this night, and thought that many comrades and colleagues in the war had sacrificed in 1949. On this night, Chiang Kai -shek thought he was about to bid farewell to the landscape of his hometown, and thought of many comrades in his year. Many of his students who experienced the Northern Expeditions died in the War of Resistance, and even thought he was ashamed of Sun Yat -sen.

In the process, Mao Zedong discussed the cause of victory, Chiang Kai -shek's thinking failed, and the two constituted a historical, deep, and thoughtful dialogue. In the play, Mao Zedong summarized a profound historical philosophy like "the people's heart and the world". When the Kuomintang walked until the spring of 1949, he had lost his heart and would inevitably go to decline.

Although the stage scene of "Xiangshan Night" is simple, it also summarizes the long history of the modern Chinese revolution. There are still thousands of horses and stormy waves in the play, but they are in the two characters who are talking and laughing. The actor's performance was presented.

While showing the inner world of the two characters, the whole drama also has a poem meaning and atmosphere, which is used to learn from and use the method of freehand Chinese opera. There were rain on the side of Xiangshan, and it was raining, winding, and fog. In such a vast night, Mao Zedong felt the warmth of spring, but Chiang Kai -shek felt the chill of spring. Li Baoqun said: "These are all kinds of hearts. In the sound of wind and rain, the two characters talk about the world."

Li Baoqun said that in order to participate in the 13th China Art Festival and the 17th Mandarin Award, the creative team studied the opinions of experts and strived to modify the show better. More artistic artworks.

Show the live party history to serve the people

Wang Ban said: "The Night of Xiangshan sent the vivid party history to the people, and the people gave enthusiastic feedback while watching the drama. After the performance, some audiences couldn't even restrain the excitement and shouted "Long live Chairman Mao". The moment the audience applauded on the stage, I think it is too happy as an actor. "

The whole drama "Xiangshan Night" is only 100 minutes, only two actors and one play, and unlike film and television, it can allow the audience to have a process of slowly accepting through different plots. But every time after the performance, there are always audiences waiting to meet the actors at the door. Wang Ban said: "Do they like me? I think they are the image of the great man I like to create. They want to take a photo with Chairman Mao. I can understand the love of Chairman Mao. I will go when I am waiting outside to take a photo with me. Chairman Mao shouted the "long live people ', which is the original intention of our Communist Party -serving the people. So as an actor, acting for the people Mission and greatest happiness. "
